Hi folks,
Thingy is translated correctly, but thingies isn't. I have no idea how
many dictionaries it may be in (it isn't in WordNet), but it is in
reasonably common use in colloquial speech. The following two examples
come from the same book. This isn't very strong proof since it's
subject to the errors of a single transcriber. However, it makes sense
and the current behavior doesn't, so I think it's a sure thing. Here
are the examples I have:
8,hell1 no10 ,zack replies4 8,?+ies1
language4 ,!y're n ?+ies2 !y're hors
