You are being contacted because you participated in a similar discussion a few months back. If you are interested, please stop by and leave your opinion.

Grands Prix

Hi Infernoapple. Regarding, this edit summary of yours, you are correct - the plural of "Grand Prix" is "Grands Prix". It's due to the term's French origins. Typically in English, when an adjective-noun pair is pluralised, only the noun is pluralised, e.g. "one big house" --> "two big houses". But in French, both the adjective and the noun are pluralised, so in this case "Grand"-->"Grands" and "Prix"-->"Prix". It looks weird/wrong because an 's' as been added to the first word, but not the second word, which is the reverse of what usually happens in English. Regards.
