See also memoranda, media, concerti, data, symposia…because English.

And for the Latin, omnis is 3rd declension, so the nominative plural would be omnes, interestingly.

Wheeeeeee

I would bet most average speakers of English do not use memoranda, concerti, or symposia. In fact, as I wrote those words, the spell checker flagged them.

Data is an interesting case because we would say many collections of data, rather than “datas”.

Nobody said language was logical.

That is why rule-based language translators were failures, and only with modern statistical approaches did we get useful translation software.

Finished numbers 22 & 23.

And discovered a hidden Sufferfest advertisement in the opening intro!

It must be footage from some other event, tho, because it’s not in the rest of the video and the rest of the velodrome is decorated different, too.

Did Omnia number 24 yesterday.

Completed Omniums 25 & 26 today.

I’ve seen this screen at the end of the kilo 34 times (according to SYSTM history) and always wondered and could never figure out what TFTO stands for.

Today for the first time my suffering-riddled mind decided it must mean some thing similar to “Thank Fluffy That’s Over”, but I’m curious what you all think.
