archívum archive - archives Explanation: archive - archives Webster nem tud ilyen szabályról: "often used in pl." - ez US English. Az Oxford Dictionary szerint: archives, egyeszám nincs. Szóval aszerint, hogy US, vagy British mindkettö helyes lehet. Javaslatom: Its director, Iván Vitányi agreed on and supported the establishment of private archives for photos and movies. |

archívum archive Explanation: I suggest to use "private photo and movie archive" without the (s), the way you have translated it. Yes "archive" is usually a noun in plural form. Also "archives, archived, archiving" are verbs. But the following is correct as well: 1. archives - collection of records especially about an institution, 2. archives - a depository containing historical records and documents. I hope it helps. |
