Etymology for "dregs" (coffee grounds)[edit]
Chambers 1908 offers an alternative to the grind etymology: "explained by Skeat as Celtic Gael. grunndas, lees, grunnd, bottom, Ir. gruntas, grunnt, bottom". Equinox ◑ 04:37, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
Plurality[edit]
Our entry suggests sing and pl are the same: "one castle grounds, two castle grounds". Is that right? I would say "the castle grounds are", i.e. already plural. Equinox ◑ 12:09, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
