    I'm sure someone has debated over this before, but I always assumed that Jedi served as both plural and singular. In this video, they use the term "Jedis" but that's wrong, right?

    I posted a comment about this on the video and I got a slew of comments ranging from "how do you know that?" and "no one cares!"



    If this is in the wrong place or it's a redundant topic, I apologize.

    No Yane I totally agree with you! Jedi works as the plural as well and it is used that way in the films!! Whoever made those comments obviously don't hang out on this site and therefore their Star Wars fan integrity is very low :p They are ****s.

    Jedi is both plural and singular, though "Jedis" is used by Anakin in ROTS.

    Oh, YouTube comments. Some people just love being mean on the internet for some reason.

    I was gonna say that the Jedi were like moose or caribou, but sheep works better. ;)

    I always thought Jedi and Sith were the plural form too, but I came across so many "Siths" that I had to wonder.

    It's like fish or fishes; both are the correct plural form of fish.

    But does that mean that sithes is also a correct plural form? I think not...:eek:
