RE: How to Use Writing Prompts Right. Day 9 of the Total Writer Transformation

Loving all the shout outs 😄
Thank you so much. And rolling the dice is such a great idea. I guess dice is now acceptable as singular as well. Which makes sense since everyone has been using it as such for a long time. Love how language changes!!!

Really? I had not heard! Thanks!

Dice definition and meaning | Collins English Dictionary
https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/dice
(daɪs ; dīs) plural nounWord forms: singular die or dice. small cubes of bone, plastic, etc. marked on each side with a different number of spots (from one to six) and used, usually in pairs, in games of chance. 2. [

Merriam-Webster still has die but gives dice as a synonym, Oxford dictionary - at least online, also gives both options and I have seen it as dice in both singular and plural with a reference that it used to be die. I think most people didn't know that dice was the plural form anyway...
