Talk:Helepolis (Age of Mythology)/@comment-4322368-20171206232629/@comment-194.177.221.19-20171207152101

I think they might be (somewhat) based on the Modern Greek pronounciation of the plural. In both forms of the Greek language, the word is written Πετρόβολος/Πετρόβολοι, but in Ancient, the plural is pronounced Petroboloi, whereas in Modern it's Petrovoli.

The strange  is that a Trojan guard referred to Helepolis in plural as Helepoli, whereas the plural should have been Helepoleis (ἑλέπολεις),  being a female word in Greek. Or at least, Helepolises, I guess...
