RFV
Is the plural of this Latin word attested? See WT:RFD, where it was pointed out that many of the GBC hits that seem relevant are actually forms of a different word, not of lac. - -sche (discuss) 21:31, 24 May 2013 (UTC)


 * As has been mentioned elsewhere, the Oxford Latin Dictionary states that there is no plural, although it does attest the singular in several of its cases. And (to expand on the above), lactibus (which is a theoretical plural form of ) is, in every instance that has been examined, a form of, which is plurale tantum.  So, we have a purely singular word and a purely plural word, each of which has forms that look like they are forms of the other, so any broad internet searches must be reviewed carefully in translation. --EncycloPetey (talk) 21:45, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

 * RFV-failed. I've removed the plural forms from lac and deleted them. - -sche (discuss) 00:32, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
