funny ass thread, i'm going with Yarii just because its technically correct, but just doesn't sound right at the same time.. the perfect choice!

I like to call 'em Yarisces (Yaris-seez). You know, like breastusces (breastus-seez).

If the car was a Yarius, then yes — Yarii would be correct.

However, I still say Yari.

What is the pronunciation then? Yari being Yar-eee or Yar-eye?

cali yaris · 06-08-2010, 04:25 PM

Haha, Yarii is correct because it's the popular usage. WIN!

coheed · 06-08-2010, 04:29 PM

Haha this is funny cause I was looking at this thread the other day.

because Garm said so

bkndacn · 06-08-2010, 04:42 PM

I like the one that is pronounced YAR-EYE

IDK if that is the the one with the single i or with the double (ii) but thats what I've been using for a year and a half!

SilverBack · 06-08-2010, 04:50 PM

Let's stick to "Babe Magnets"

bkrownd · 06-08-2010, 05:51 PM

I prefer "Tiny Bubbles" for the hatchbacks and "Minnows" for the sedans.

Altitude · 06-08-2010, 06:01 PM

So this begs the question of which collective noun to use...

Band of Yarii
Bunch of Yarii
Group of Yarii
Flock of Yarii
Gaggle of Yarii
Herd of Yarii
etc...

Someone make a poll!

cali yaris · 06-08-2010, 06:03 PM

"pod" works for me

STC · 06-08-2010, 08:41 PM

Coalition of Yarii?
Alliance of Yarii?
League of Yarii?

This gives me an idea for a new book of philosophy called "The Plurality of Yarii." People would buy it for the title alone!

STC · 06-08-2010, 10:33 PM

^ I like! The Yarii culture...

Hmmm... you can also write a new philosophical book on values and change the title around to: "Zen and the Art of 'Yarii' Maintenance"... That's a title that would grab some attention.

TRDMarty · 06-11-2010, 03:43 PM

I'd go with the GAY Greek God way of saying it = Yarith

& no I'm not gay. Atleast my wife says I'm not.

Go ahead, say it,

YARITH Like with a lisp

It sounds singular but also sounds plural. The best of both worlds.

So the next time you're driving and see ONE, just go ahead and say it = YARITH
