Note
A regular plural, made with a plain -s, that carries every meaning of the singular. Its most fixed home is board of directors, where the plural is built into the phrase and the group acts as one governing body. Elsewhere it can mean several film or department heads, spiritual counselors, or the symmetry axes of liquid-crystal molecules, so context, not form, tells them apart.
