The plural of corpus in English is corpora, in common use by practitioners
of corpus linguistics. Same thing in Latin, more or less: the nominative
singular is corpus, nominative plural corpora. It's neuter third
declension; the plurals that end in -i are typically masculine, second
declension. But I'm afraid we're getting both off-topic and pedantic.
