Tea room discussion

[edit]
Note: the below discussion was moved from the Wiktionary:Tea room.

Are these always plural? Should we have entries for both Roman bath and Roman baths or maybe just for therma and/or thermae. Or all four? SemperBlotto 10:39, 18 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Looking at the bgc hits it seems that "Roman bath" and "Roman baths" both get use, although I'd say the latter is more common (note that searches for the former also get hits for "Roman Bath", i.e. relating to the city of Bath). "Roman bath" might also have an obsolete sense meaning a specific type of bath (tub of water for bathing in), but I'm not certain what this is. Thryduulf 11:46, 18 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
