For the sake of argument, I'll mention now that ''rex'' and ''regis'' are '''both''' singular in Latin. (However, ''rex'' is nominative, ''regis'' is genitive.) The nominative plural is ''reges''. (If you've ever wondered why the plural and possessive as so similar in English, well, same thing applies here. Blame the Proto-Indo-Europeans.) - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]]<sub>[[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]]</sub> 13:32, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC) |

I dunno, I call them Gits. Each one of thier nicknames on my Sapphire has a profanity because of how stressed I got trying to capture them. - Ferret
