What shall we call it when a bunch of Pagodas are together? You know, the collective noun.
Examples:
herd of buffalo
band of gorillas
pride of lions
fleet of trucks
line of cars
squadron of airplanes
armada of ships
chain of islands
What shall it be for Pagodas? Be creative! Here's your chance to have your place in history as the person who coined the term. :D

Flower-potters

English is not my native language, so I am sure I will be excused:
bunch, band, gang, pack, flock
-
A loada Pagoda ?
-
A noodle of Pagodas
-
A puddle of pagodas?
A park of pagodas?
A prior of pagodas?
-
How about
A forest of Pagodas.
-
Simply put:
A Plethora of Pagodas
or a Plural of Pagodas

-
A league of pagodas
-
A "revenue" of pagodas ;D
-
A roof
-
A posse of Pagodas
-
Or maybe a plethora of pagodas.
-
A Gaggle of Pagodas
-
These are great! Keep 'em coming!

I can see an excel spreadsheet coming for voting of members choices

I'd just use the built-in poll feature of the forums. Actually, let's do this. People can continue to post ideas/entries through the end of this month and on Aug 1 I will create a poll, let it run the month of August, and when it closes we'll have a winner!
-
A Parade of Pagodas
-
How 'bout a "pride" of Pagodas?
-
Anytime I see someone referring to a collection of vehicles, the term "fleet" is being used. What's wrong with that?
-
Too easy and no fun perhaps?
I like “revenue”…
-
Plethora, Pride and Parade all great choices. But..............my vote would be "Parade of Pagodas". Sounds more fitting.
-
My first thought was simply, Pagodi. If we go with something more fun and still meaningful, I like pride.
-
Pagoda Obsession
-
A shade of Pagodas.
My wife says, a Temple of Pagodas.
Cheers

I went ahead and created the poll at the top of the thread. It's open for 21 days. Poll results are hidden until the poll closes. Enjoy!
-
Already mentioned, but I like PAGODI , plural of PAGODA.
BTW: good thread concept. Hoping for a TEE Shirt from originator (Rodd Mastel) when votes are in…….
-
Great idea Rodd…I’d like a tee shirt too….

Well, hmmmm, I'll have to think about that....

Our W113s came to be called Pagodas because of the hard top shape being similar to a Japanese pagoda.
Why not “Takusan Pagodas” ??
The Japanese word “takusan” means much or many. If my memory serves me correctly, there is little or no emphasis on the “u” and the pronunciation is almost as if it were spelled t-a-k-s-a-n. Do we have a fluent Japanese speaker here?
-
A star of pagodas
Ie MB star whilst also the car is the star 🤣

Rodd, what about the later suggestions. Are you going to modify your poll or, have you shut off further suggestions?
-
If the poll is updated, I have one more suggestion: A Gathering of Pagodas.

Already mentioned, but I like PAGODI , plural of PAGODA.
Not exactly. The gender ending in "A" is female in Italian. Male gender is "O". Plural ending for male gender (and mix) is "I" Plural ending for female gender is "E".
Consequently: One Pagod"A" , two or more are Pagod"E"

Now, write it out 100 times. If it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off.

But it's a Japanese architecture reference for a German car. I kind of like using Pagoda as both the singular and plural, as in the one suggestion "a loada Pagoda". Made me smile. Most improtantly, let's not take anything in this discussion too seriously.

“ a loada Pagoda “
I like that one too…
