/dɪˈpraɪvəlz/ noun

Definition

Plural form of deprival; multiple instances of taking something away from someone.

Etymology

Regular English pluralization of deprival by adding -s. Maintains the same root etymology as deprival (from Old French depriver and Latin deprivare).

Kelly Says

The plural deprivals is especially rare—even the singular form is old-fashioned, so seeing deprivals in writing would be quite unusual except in specialized legal or historical documents.
