    errata.

    (Del pl. lat. errāta, cosas erradas).


    1. f. Equivocación material cometida en lo impreso o manuscrito.
    V.
    fe

    Errata in the latin was a plural noun but the Spanish definition looks like a singular count noun. In English, errata is used in the plural sense. How does one use errata correctly in a sentence in Spanish?

    Es una errata.
    Es errata.

    Also, is errata the same as a typo?

    From the Spanish Royal Academy:
    errata.
    (Del pl. lat. errāta, cosas erradas).
    1. f. Equivocación material cometida en lo impreso o manuscrito.
    V.
    ~ de erratas.
    1. f. Impr. Lista de las erratas observadas en un libro, inserta en él al final o al comienzo, con la enmienda que de cada una debe hacerse.

    As you see, it can be used both in the singular (errata) and plural (erratas).
    And, yes, errata is a typo.

    I believe that "Typos" should be another word you could use

    Increíble. ¿No es muy viejo este hilo? Pero “typo” es una forma corta para “typographical error”, y jerga, más o menos. “Mexiacno” es un “typo”. Creo que la única palabra usamos para notas para corregir errores de sustancia es la palabra de latín, errata.
