The original English word for "Antenna" is "Aerial".
But USA citizens who imagined, as is quite normal for USA citizens, they had invented such devices, they then had to invent another naming-word in support of their claims. But we forgive such immature pranks. It's only human nature, after all, to play such games. ;o) A MERRY XMAS to all readers. ============================================= "Cecil Moore" wrote in message ...

My Merriam-Webster's 10th edition Collegiate Dictionary makes absolutely no distinction between "antennas" and "antennae". Those two plurals are interchangeable in American English whether one is talking about insect or radio antennas. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp -----------== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Uncensored Usenet News ==---------- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----= Over 100,000 Newsgroups - Unlimited Fast Downloads - 19 Servers =----- |
