Did you know it's called the View Transition API (and not the View Transitions API [plural])?

Now MDN knows too (github.com/mdn/content/issues/) so there's no reason to keep using the wrong name.

To be clear: it's only when talking about the API when you should be using the singular form.

It's still perfectly fine to say things like “The site uses View Transitions” or “The View Transitions specification”.

@bramus Oh, hi! We have similar hobbies, it seems. I’m trying to convince people to say HTML elements, not HTML tags when referring to the actual elements.

@pepelsbey If it weren’t for people like us, people would still be saying “alt tag” 😭
