I just had to check which rules apply to some other words, like 'stadium' and 'forum'. Turns out that both 'stadiums' and 'stadia' are valid plurals of 'stadium

I just had to check which rules apply to some other words, like 'stadium' and 'forum'. Turns out that both 'stadiums' and 'stadia' are valid plurals of 'stadium' while 'forums' is the preferred plural of 'forum', although 'fora' is not incorrect.

Speaking of "stadium", that's another one of those Greek words where we go around repeating the Latinized version. It might be more properly "stadion".
