    Men at work usually means 'One Man at work, 5 Men Watching'.

    That's why it's called a hurricane, and not a himmicane.

    From long ago, read the sci-fi book "Languages of Pao" by Jack Vance in 1958. A peaceful planet is plagued by space raiders. They hire a linguist from a university planet to help. He designs multiple languages for business, military, and so on. Pao is transformed into an aggressive powerhouse. Language reflects mindset / world view which molds actions.

      I was under the impression they changed all the signs from "Men At Work" to "Men Working" way back in the day due to excessive sign theft from fans of the band... Was what I always heard, anyway...

      Funny that the Australian music group named themselves after the sign. Would the band say, “It’s a Mistake” or is it just “Overkill?” If the signs go away, there would be “No Sign of Yesterday.”

    It is like Spanish. If you can prove that all 50 people in a room are women, you say they are Muchachas. It even one man is added to the room, you must say they are Muchachos. The Male form of the word is the default.
