What's the singular of the word 'stigmata'?

I think the word also had something to do with the wounds of Christ and how really holy Saints would get these same wounds. Scared me as a kid until I realized I was never going to be a saint! Whew!

Mental health is a real problem in society. Lots of bananas and crackers out there. They need help and support. But it is hard to understand.

An odd question. I've never heard anyone refer to multiple stigma as stigmata. And I've never heard of stigmata, similar to the piercing of Jesus, in the singular. Claims have always been for multiple marks at a time.

Snance, It would be better to NOT refer to the mentally affected as "bananas and crackers." OK!!??

I was following Latin rules and went with Stigmatum... I guess I am wrong

I think this is wrong, stigma and stigmata are different things

CyanJaguar62, hi, the condition was identified first before being latterly applied to the mental alignment of Christs followers, then made famous by films like Stigmata where the empathy to feel Christs pain was so overwhelming that it literally created a the same biochemical experience. wow, isn't the mind amazing.

CyanJaguar62, Happened to me somehow

Unreal Neil., flakes, fruits, and nuts.

TestyAlien3443, it is plural as there were multiple piercings

Unreal Neil., fruit loops?
