Subject: Re: [ubl-psc] Curricula vs. curriculum


Thanks, Oriol -- that's exactly what I needed.  The explanation
is enough for me to finish the definition, and it's clear that
"curricula" can remain plural.

Now if I can just get answers to the questions I've raised about
taxation...

Hi Jon

The indicator you are referring is used to indicate whether the tenderers must include the curriculum vitae for the participants in the procurement project (true) or not (false). Imagine the contract is a consultancy project, the curricula for all the consultants must be included when this indicator is set to true.
In this case we are referring to the set of curricula for all participating users in the performance of the project and not to a single curriculum. Therefore, I guess we could use the plural form.

Is the explanation above enough for you to extract the definition?

Best regards
Oriol

Hello PSC,

Sorry to say that I have found one last (!) plural/singular problem:

  Tendering Terms. Required Curricula. Indicator

Fortunately, it's just that one BBIE.  The definition is:

  It is used to indicate if the curricula is required or not.

The intended meaning of "curricula" here seems to be singular; but the
singular in English is "curriculum".  I need to know which.

(I also need to have the word explained in this context so that I can
add that to the definition.  What's a "curriculum" in etendering?)

Jon
