attractions
- 1Plural of attraction.
The guidebook ranks the coastal town's attractions by how long each visit takes.
The fair's main attractions include a Ferris wheel and a petting zoo.
Note
The plural is most at home with the visitor sense: the events, places and businesses a town lists to draw people in, a meaning that is only ever counted. Elsewhere attraction can also be a mass noun, so the plural marks separate instances, such as distinct pulls of feeling or desire, or several sacrifices aimed at a chess king. Where the singular names a general force or tendency, the plural rarely fits.
