What is the foreign plural of genius?

The foreign plural of "genius" is "genii" or "geniuses," depending on the context. "Genii" is the Latin plural form, while "geniuses" is the commonly used English plural form for the word "genius."


Plural of genius?

That's a good question. As you may or may not know, there is some disagreement and controversy over the proper plural of the noun genius. In most cases, one can acceptably use geniuses as the plural. In fact, when referring to the "quality" of genius (as opposed to an individual possessing certain qualities or a certain nature), geniuses is the plural that one should normally use. However, when referring to an individual as a genius, the most correct plural is genii (that's three syllables). This is because genius is derived from Latin. It is the first-person masculine singular form of the word. The first-person masculine plural is genii. There is one additional, and rare, case where the plural genii should be used. This is the form of the word that comes from Roman mythology and refers to a guardian spirit of a person or place. If this is all a little too complex to remember and apply, just remember that geniuses will sound correct--even if not brilliant and erudite--in most cases. It's actually quite infrequently that the general populace uses the word genii.
