  1. Yes, I would say ‘a myriad of..’, no idea if that is right or not but it just sounds more natural.

    See Rob, it’s your least favorite word and now it’s in over half the posts on the thread.

  2. I typically use the words mother and father when talking to most people, and mom and dad when talking to family.

    i can’t stand when a grown man refers to his parents as “mommy and daddy” my mother used to smack me when i was younger if i called her mommy.

  3. “Throughout most of its history in English myriad was used as a noun, as in a myriad of men. In the 19th century it began to be used in poetry as an adjective, as in myriad men. Both usages in English are acceptable, as in Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s “Myriad myriads of lives.”
