marbles, one's marbles

In the sense of sanity, mental faculties. Equinox ◑ 16:25, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

"one's marbles" was such a bad page name for this; I merged it into marbles, recreated lose one's marbles, and deleted an awful tangle of redirects from the lemma being moved around. Ultimateria (talk) 19:58, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Is the game of marbles really plural, as stated here?

I would say "marbles is a fun game", not "marbles are a fun game". Equinox ◑ 16:49, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
