Zayac_the_Engineer -ae is usually the plural for words ended in -a when singular, like alga -> algae or alumna -> alumnae. I am by no means an expert, though. Have a look at the link below to have a peek at the mess Latin is. www.dailywritingtips.com/latin-plural-endings/ Also, since we are speaking English, I know that some people just use -s, as in “plectrums”. As long as we are getting our ideas across, right? You do you! :)

So I know this is an older video, but I discovered Dragon's Heart picks through this and decided to buy one to give it a try. I was used to playing 1.14 mm jazz picks for the last 12+ years so I was concerned it would take me awhile to get used to it, but I took to it immediately and now I want to buy 30 of them just so I don't ever have to play with anything else again! Also, was happy to find your discount code still worked, so huge thanks, man!
