If you own a piece of land and there is an volcano on it and it ruins a
nearby town, do you have to pay for the property damage?
Ah yes, but if you look at fungus, it should say something like (pl. fungi). Does in mine anyway! Also says virus (pl. viruses).
So there!!!!!

You may be right. After all, I've heard this on a forum, not in a dictionaryOriginally posted by RobR
No, I'm sorry, but I simply can't let that one go!!!
Viri is the Latin nominative plural for man, viruses is the Latin plural for virus.
Neither is English or American.
Would these dictionary books yet have net slang and jargon in them? BTW, I searched webster.com for "virii" and "viri" and came up empty handed. Hmm, must be slang.
Weeel, itss aboot tieme wee goo back too Canada, eeehy boyss.
I thought a virii was a single stranded virus. Or made of a RNA not DNA. Harder to kill as very prone to mutation, ie AIDS, Marburg or Ebola.
Could be wrong.
