    One plural covers two different settings. Seminars can be advanced classes, where students meet regularly under a professor to discuss original research, or business meetings, where members of a trade come together to share useful information. Context usually tells them apart: weekly seminars on a syllabus are academic, and seminars at an industry event are commercial. The same spelling also belongs to the rare intransitive verb meaning to lead or take part in a seminar.
