viri

See also: vīri

English

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /ˈvaɪɹaɪ/

Noun

viri

1. (proscribed) Incorrect plural of virus, which in Latin amounts to a singulare tantum.

Usage notes

• In historical Latin usage, no plural form of virus was attested. Both viri, and the more erroneous form virii, appear jokingly or in error in English, especially in the computing sense.
