fora/forums

I posted a topic on here yesterday and used the plural of forum as fora.

Did you know that forums and fora are both acceptable plurals for forum? A lot of people don't seem to!

Which do you use?
Fora:

Sparks
ssss

Forums

Scimonster
Markyparky56
GarSkutherGirl
SpriteMaster
SeptimusHeap
Necromaster
scratch_yoshi
soupoftomato
imnotbob
kimmy123
bananaman114
gettysburg11
hdarken

Both:

meew0
jslomba
jackrulez
GirWaffles64

Re: fora/forums

Forums. I did not know that Fora was a plural for forum.

Retired from Scratch, but just the language itself. Not the forums.

Re: fora/forums

I use what the Scratch Team does.

*looks at title of forum*

I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

Re: fora/forums

I've never heard "fora" before your post, but I have nothing against it. Put me under "Both".

Yawn, another boring text signature. I should really make something better.
