Stupid question

OK, here goes....

Before you get to the forums, you normally go through the main www.mbworld page, right?

On the front of that page there is a "Featured Article." Right now it is a tour of the Fletcher-Jones MB facility in Newport Beach.

My problem is this; I cannot click or gain access to the FJ-MB feature.

I wanna read it!!! Wahhhhhhh.

Can anyone advise?

Thanks,

EDJ

hahaha

Ya know, I haven't checked back here since I first read your answer a few months ago, and I JUST realized you were throwing out the plural form of the neuter nominative. Gee, and I thought I'd never use Latin again.

AFAIR,

Masculine Singluar= Alumnus
Masculine Plural= Alumni

Feminine Singlular= Alumna
Feminine Plural= Alumnae

Neuter Singular= Alumnum
Neuter Plural= Alumni (or is it Alumna? I forget!)

That would make more than one Lexus, Lexi, FWIW.

Do I remember correctly? Any seminarians, doctors, lawyers, others fooled into taking Latin through High School?
