Template talk:definite plural of

Template name

Is there a reason for this template being named 'plural definite' rather than 'definite plural'? 'definite plural' sounds more correct since plural is a common category, while definite is not. Thus definite/indefinite describes what kind of plural it is rather than singular/plural describing what kind of "definite" it is. I suppose one could also see it as a listing, neither describing the other; in which case the ordering would be decided by different principles. --Njardarlogar (talk) 11:30, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
