Believe it or not, the borrowing of inflectional morphology was on my mind today. Specifically, I saw the plural of Swedish "video" printed "videor" which blew my mind. I always say "videos," i.e. English plural. How do you guys do it @karlboll @mr_pigeonwizard

Norwegian is similar to Swedish here, but we sneak in an 'e' right before the end; videoer

Wow that's even crazier :-D Maybe it's because English is my native language, but "videor" sounds so wrong to me.

I think you have to wiggle your ass when you say it with an extra e
