Salve, Ahenobarbe!
Yes: the plural of praetor is praetores. But the problem is that in this law they wanted to say "praetorials", ie. fromer praetors, ex-praetors. Well, former praetor or praetorial in Latin is praetorius, second declension. Its plural nominative is praetorii. :) Vale! --Gnaeus Cornelius Lentulus 22:24, 26 September 2008 (CEST)
Dative of praetor
And about the dative of praetor: it's not praetorii, but praetori! Praetorii can be only the plural nominative of praetorius or singular genitive of the same. Please take a look at the article about dative. Vale! --Gnaeus Cornelius Lentulus 22:28, 26 September 2008 (CEST)
