Hi Allen,
The concept is to use whatever makes sense to you, either singular
or plural. Right now there's no attempt made to isolate root words
or words with the same meaning, but these are possible for the future.
You can use the "-" (dash) and underscore ("_") characters to
create compound words ("science_fiction"). There's a limit of
63 characters per tag, but that should be more than sufficient.
Thanks for your help!
