Plural of coxcombry; instances or examples of foolish, vain, or pretentious behavior.
From 'coxcombry' with the regular '-s' plural ending, allowing the abstract noun for foolish behavior to be counted in individual instances.
Most abstract nouns don't usually have plurals—you don't say 'stupidities' or 'beauties' very often—but older English allowed more flexibility, so 'coxcombries' meant specific examples of foolish antics.
Plural of coxcombry; collections of foolish vain acts or displays associated with male coxcomb behavior.
Use 'vanities,' 'foolish acts,' or 'pretenses.'
