petty annoyance at a specific word Show more
I'm starting to get really annoyed with Big Finish for using the word "Series". Because it's really ambiguous and frustrating:
The sense of "series" in
"The fan-loved series, The Eighth Doctor Adventures"
is a different sense to
"The Eighth Doctor Adventures: Series 3"
"Big Finish produces a number of different series"
it's horrible, because it makes it so hard to write about things.
The plural form just being "series" is the secret killer here.
I've had to rewrite sentences *so many times* because using the plural form made the sentence sound so utterly wrong.
