A number of respondents have commented on alternative plurals,
but actually my posting was in response to two or three postings
just that day using "corpora" as the singular, as in "I am looking for
a corpora of child language". This is something my students do all
the time, and I was sorry to see it spread to this mailoing list,
where I thought people would know better. Whatever you think the
plural is, you surely agree that "corpus" is the singular (and
"corpora" isn't).
