The text discusses how people misuse words borrowed from other languages in English, specifically "cappuccini" (pl. cappuccinos), "graffito" (pl. graffiti), and "data". The author of the blog post explores whether it's acceptable to use "data helps" instead of "data help(s)" and finds that Google Trends shows more searches for "data is" than "data are", suggesting that the singular form is more common in usage. Experts, including the Chicago Manual of Style and dictionaries, also support using "data" with a singular verb, citing its use as a mass noun or noncount noun to denote an abstract concept. The author concludes that "data helps" is standard usage and that people who disagree are not representative of the majority.
