词组 erotica
释义 erotica
      Erotica has the form of a Greek plural, but it is now usually understood as a mass noun meaning "erotic material," and, as Bernstein 1971 observes, it is now more often than not construed as singular:
      ... the erotica is explicit —Thomas Lask, TV. Y. Times, 15 Oct. 1966
      ... erotica was often associated with left-wing politics —Times Literary Supp., 22 Oct. 1971
      Is all erotica male fantasy then ... ? —Shana Alexander, Newsweek, 5 Feb. 1973
      Treatment of erotica as a plural still occurs, however, and is not incorrect:
      There is also a top row of erotica and I asked the man if he sold many of these —Bill Moyers, Harper's, December 1970
      For other foreign plurals, see Latin plurals.
