Quote from Lorelai in Application Anxiety
Lorelai: So, alumna is a girl graduate. Rory: Right. Lorelai: And alumnus is a man. Rory: Singular. Lorelai: So an unmarried man? Rory: No, not not-married. He can be married or single, all alumnus means is one man singular as opposed to many men plural. Lorelai: And plural is alumni. Rory: Right, and that can be girls and guys. Lorelai: Kinky! Rory: No, not kinky, just what it is. Lorelai: Oh, you're no fun when you're nervous. Rory: Oh yes, because you and I usually have so much fun with Latin.
