The plural Lego, is (apparently) officially 'Lego bricks'.

I don't get why the plural can't just be "Legi" (pronouced Leg-eye), it sounds a fair bit better than "Legos" (which sounds suspiciously like a brand of Pasta) and differentiates itself from the singular "Lego"...

Legi? Why not simply use 'a piece of Lego' and 'some pieces of Lego'?

So says LEGO itself. :nod: Except LEGO is always capitalized. :p

But I say Legos anyway. ;)

 
Saying legos seems a lot easier than saying lego bricks or legi.  It just sounds easier on the ears imo.
