warriors
WAWR-ee-urz/ˈwɔɹiɚz/UKWO-ree-uhz/ˈwɒɹɪəz/
- 1Plural of warrior.
The mounted warriors swept across the plain at dawn.
Legends celebrate the warriors who held the mountain pass against impossible odds.
Note
A regular plural, made with a plain -s and no change to the stem, so it takes plural verbs and determiners: these warriors were, not was. It carries both meanings of the singular: fighters in battle and, figuratively, people who throw themselves energetically into a pursuit such as athletics. The plural possessive puts the apostrophe after the s, as in the warriors' camp, but a single warrior's shield.
