Talk:locum

Copied from tea room:

Is the plural of locum (British word of Latin origin) locums? RJFJR 18:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

The OED doesn't give a plural, so I assume it is regular. SemperBlotto 10:19, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Locum is an informal British abbreviation of locum tenens. The plural of the latter is locum tenentes, so the plural of the former is presumably locums (not loca or whatever else). † Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 12:16, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
