Oh, who am I fooling?  I *must* be pedantic!

"Vivat" is for one person.  "Vivant" is for two or more people.
(I asked someone once about whether "Ansteorra" took the singular
or plural.  I was told the singular is correct, so "Vivat Ansteorra!"
is indeed OK.)

'O nautae!' is ambitious" de Lincolia
