I'm just going to start here, because some obviously poor choices 
will motivate better ones. I'm almost deliberately not being 
consistent, to see what people prefer and hate.

I prefer singular to plural, because singular means either in 
Klingon, and the three extra letters are unnecessary and possibly unwieldy.

This exercise would be easier if you were to post the existing, non 
garbage, strings too, so we could just look and go "yep, that works."
