minus-square@TotalSoniclinkEnglish34•10 months agoMy old man pet peeve: the plural of “vinyl” is “vinyl.” They are “records” or “LPs” - not “vinyls”. Now get off of my LAN! ;)
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish8•10 months agoHey now, “vinyls” is a perfectly acceptable word… Assuming you’re referring to multiple different types of vinyl, rather than multiple records or other vinyl products 😉
minus-squareSundraylinkfedilinkEnglish3•10 months agoI often listen to vinyls of my favorite band… The Divinyl.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•10 months agoThey’re probably the same people that talk about “legos”.
minus-square@SludgeyylinkEnglish1•10 months ago“Can you pass me the bag of plastic blocks?” Not “Can you pass me the bag of Legos” If you wanted a box of adhesive bandages. You’d say “Can you pass me the box of band-aids?” or a tissue, “Can you pass me a kleenex?” Companies do not want their brand to become generic trademarks. It’s not because Lego is already pural “I have many Lego blocks” Not “I have many Lego”
