Auditotoria

/ˌɔːdɪtɔːˈtɔːriə/ noun

Definition

A plural form of auditorium; multiple auditoriums or halls designed for audiences to listen to performances or speeches.

Etymology

This is a variant or alternative plural of auditorium. Latin auditorium (place for hearing) can form plurals as auditoria or auditoriums, and auditotoria appears to be a less common variant plural form.

Kelly Says

This word shows how English borrowed Latin nouns and then couldn't decide how to pluralize them—we got auditorium/auditoriums, auditorium/auditoria, AND auditorium/auditotoria!
