"Virii" is not a word. Well, it is a word, just like "sokblast" is a word, but just like "sokblast", "virii" doesn't mean anything.

Actually it is a word, but it doesn't mean "lots of viruses". It actually means something in latin I believe. I think it has something to do with life or vitality.

Funny about "sokblast" though... Me and one of my friends use it all the time in place of "BAM!" or "BOOM"!

  Besides, viri is the Latin word for 'men' (plural of vir, man, the root the English virile).

  It's related to nothing because it's a made-up word.
  
  Actually, that does kind of make it related to virii.
