Convives

/kɒnˈvaɪvz/ noun

Definition

Plural of convive; multiple guests at a banquet or feast.

Etymology

From convive plus the regular plural -s.

Kelly Says

The plural reminds us that Latin nouns often had distinct plural forms, and English borrowed these words with their Latin plurals intact—you can still see this pattern in words like 'alumni' and 'fungi,' though many Latin plurals have been regularized.
