It was interesting to read the plurality issue at the end. I would disagree with the gentleman's appraisal that the singular nature of the word indicates a single, mythic being. Names such as Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yeti, etc... are all singular but are used to describe multiple specimens. In fact, many have taken to not creating plural forms of these words, instead choosing to use them like the word sheep - it's both plural and singular. Given how Spanglish Puerto Rican Spanish can be, I have seen many cases of adopting traits of the English language for use in Spanish. Fascinating read nonetheless. Cullan, Carolina, PR Great post!
