correspondences
- 1Plural of correspondence.
Linguists mapped the regular sound correspondences between Latin and Spanish.
Researchers identified striking correspondences between the two ancient texts.
Note
A plural most at home with the countable meanings: point-by-point agreements and relations, as in correspondences between two texts. Written communications go either way. The uncountable form treats the mail as one body, while the plural counts separate exchanges. Meanings that are only uncountable, such as newspaper stories or the obsolete sense of friendly discussion, take no plural at all.
