The main entry says that this word is a nominative/vocative plural form. however, I can't seem to find an independent source to verify this, and it's highly dubious given that the https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-ai suffix in the vast majority of languages means first-person singular past historic, with the notable exception being Latin. Therefore this will be removed until it can be properly sourced. 98.178.191.34 06:11, 20 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

First-declension masculine nouns in Ancient Greek have plurals in -αι. See w:Ancient Greek nouns#Masculine a-stem. Considering this is a noun form entry, I don't even know what "first-person singular past historic" means. What is the past tense of the word "zebra", or "houseplant"?
As for other languages (mainly Italian and French), those aren't Greek, are they? 70.172.194.25 06:34, 20 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
