Italians have a strange antipathy to the final -s in English and even when they do add it, they often refuse to pronounce it. This habit is a common symptom of Modican Englishitis but it is also widespread and the above example was espied in a Catania store on Saturday.
I hope purchasers of this rack enjoy the one magazine they put in it!
