ambassadors
- 1Plural of ambassador.
Foreign ambassadors gathered to present their credentials to the new head of state.
The summit brought together ambassadors from more than forty nations.
Note
A regular plural, made with a plain -s, it carries every meaning of the singular: envoys of the highest rank, official messengers, the people who front a company, and players who uphold a sport's good name. In the possessive the apostrophe follows the s (the ambassadors' residences), which sets it apart from the singular ambassador's. It always takes a plural verb: the ambassadors were recalled.
