Input
Some people object to “input” as computer jargon
that’s proliferated unjustifiably in the business world.
Be aware that it’s not welcome in all settings;
but whatever you do, don’t misspell it “imput.”

Usage Notes
Is 'Inputted' a Real Word?
And can people give their 'inputs'?
What to Know
Inputted and input are both
acceptable past tenses of the verb "input,"
even though the verb is derived from "put"
which is rarely seen as "putted."
For the noun "input"
which could be both something entered into a computer
or someone’s advice
for example, "input" and "inputs" are acceptable plurals.
It looks so simple,
beginning with its initial definition
(our first sense for input is “something that is put in”),
but once you begin digging it becomes rather messy.
Is there a plural of input, and if so, is it inputs?
Is inputted a word?

Is the Plural of Input "Inputs?"
Let’s look first at the noun — can you have inputs? Yes,
although in some cases it may sound odd.
There are some senses of input
which always are pluralized with an S,
Input vs. Inputted
When dealing with the verb,
the issue of how to treat the past participle is a contentious one,
with much blood being shed on both sides.
Some people feel that the past participle of input
should be input, not inputted,
based on the reasoning that the word comes from put,
and we don’t say “he putted the papers on the shelf.”
A similar line of reasoning has caused many people
to aver that words such as
broadcast should never be written as broadcasted,
since the cast portion of the word remains unchanged with tense.
We list both input and inputted
(and broadcasted!) as past participles.
If you’d rather notbother with
deciding between these various forms, you don’t have to,
and may use either secure in the knowledge that
there has been no consensus reached
among the few usage guides that have examined the issue.
In other words, you'll probably offend someone
no matter what you do.
