THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A DICE It is impossible for anyone to throw a dice, for no such thing exists. It is possible, however, for a person td throw two dice. The singular form of the word dice is die, so one would correctly say he threw one die or threw several dice. It is never correct to say "several dices." (Public Ledger--WNU Service.
