Wiktionary

exes

n. (plural of ex English) vb. (en-third-person singular of: ex)

Usage examples of «exes».

The tabloids had dug up several of Rupert’s more bitter exes, who, having done a great deal more than kiss, were now only too happy to tell.

He’s got two exes who skinned him financially because he couldn’t keep it in his pants, and without Pepper, he probably wouldn’t be able to get a meeting in his chosen field.

Burt Cowan’s exes listed sexual aberrations that included such bizarre practices that they might have come right out of Krafftebing’s study on aberrant sex.

Defining «ex,» with or without the hyphen, solely as a reference to «past» or «former,» ignores its use in an entirely different direction and intent. «Ex» is used (without a hyphen) in commonly used Latin phrases, and almost never suggests «former» or «past.» In such uses, «ex» denotes present tense. For example:

  • ex Deo — from God
  • ex parte — by one party or for one party
  • ex tempore — this instant, right away, or immediately

Another Latin phrase is «ex officio,» which one frequently finds written with the hyphen inserted erroneously. This Latin phrase means from the office, in reference to someone who presently has a right or privilege because of an office currently held. It is regularly used correctly today in business, academics, and law for serious purposes.

Written as «ex-officio,» though, it conveys, roughly, the opposite (only roughly because it is not proper Latin). It is used in this way where it should not, such as in news stories, magazines, and books. Some dictionaries actually define it as «former official,» with no reference to its real meaning. Allowing this isn’t word creep or poisoning a dry well. It is tantamount to poisoning a well filled with fresh water.
