Get It Write: Criteria, Media, and Memorandums

Curated by ACT

Do you know when to use "criteria" and when to use "criterion?" What about "media" and "medium?" The correct singular and plural usage of these words can cause confusion. This site gives a good explanation of how to use these words properly, as well as other commonly used words that are derived directly from Latin. A self-test is provided at the end of the article.
