Omnibus

Omnibus is a Latin word meaning "for all (people)" and has 3 main meanings in standard English:
  • A vehicle for transporting large numbers of people. See bus.
  • A book or video collecting two or more previous works by the same author or director. See omnibus (media).

Note: Omnibus had no plural in Latin, because it was already a plural word. In English, its plural is "omnibuses", not "omnibi", which is a solecism.
