When advised that Criteria, the plural of criterion, is not acceptable as a singular noun" http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/criterion
Dr. Ferdinando dos Reis Falcão <[email protected]> wrote the following in Falconish brilliance : Sorry <jc>, I thought you were conscious you were from the medical profession as I was referring you a paediatric problem. I did not know you had problems with your memory. Please check the medical dictionary here. http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/criteria Dear learned Sirjee, Thank you for confirming that Criteria is NOT singular, and that you were in error in your previous post. Must say that your humility, in accepting your errors, is striking. May I add that except by way of recombinant technology, medical dictionaries are unlikely to be able to make singular out of plural. If you do not believe me, please check with Santoshbab. He is an A+ in Englsih, and you a D-. Which school did you attend? Did they not have a good English teacher on staff? jc
