    Wait until you see the plural of Macuahuitl!

    Because the plural form of items (especially non-stackable ones) is rarely ever seen in FINAL FANTASY XIV, we decided that we would have some fun, and opted to use "authentic" spellings whenever possible. This mostly pertains to Latin words (gladius -> gladii, scutum -> scuta), but every now and again we'll get a doozy like Macuahuitl.

    That said, this doesn't mean we've abandoned our good friend the "s." You'll still find him bringing up the rear on 99% of our items' plural forms.
