Since we're on terminology, isn't it "offside" not "offsides"?

Maybe the referee did not understand. I know I had it happen to me as a rookie years ago.
On the play the offense came set. A back starts forward and is five yards downfield when I blow the whistle and report a dead ball foul for encroachment. The referee tells me that was a live ball foul thinking I did not know the difference. He changed his mind when I described what had happened.

OK, here is the update as we went into todays game. I discussed the rule with all the officials, including the one who ruled it a live ball foul, and it was decided that they were wrong and I was correct. Once again, thanks to everyone who answered the post.
