so, is the plural "solstices" or "solsti"?

I don't know which is correct nor care, all I care is what owners think the plural should be and that's what I'll use

:agree: :lol:

The word solstice is pluralized solstices, similar to practices. Saying Solsti is a misapplication of pluralization rules, and (to me, and possibly no one else) would indicate a lack of respect for or understanding of the English language. In my feeble mind, it's the equivalent of using apostrophes where they don't belong.

My personal preference is (and we have discussed this before) none of th eabove, but since the shortened endearment of the proper name (and not general noun) Solstice is SOl, then the friendly plural of Sol is Sols. I see a problem when you start discussing the plkural possessive iof Solstice and end up at Solstices'sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss :yesnod:
