Default Re: Fe de erratas

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.
