There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins were not invented in England or French fries in France . Sweetmeats are candies, whilesweet breads, which aren't sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write, but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce, and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So,one moose, 2 meese? One index, two indices? Is cheese the plural of choose? If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?

Do you just happen to know all of these off the top of your head? If so, I'm thoroughly impressed. And dizzy. So much lack of consistency in the language...>.<

In what language do people recite at a play, and play at a recital? Ship by truck, and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? Park on
driveways and drive on parkways? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a
wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as
hell another? When a house burns up, it burns down. You fill in a form by filling it out, and an alarm clock goes off by going on. When the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it, but when I wind up this comment, I end it…

Words ending in -us usually get changed to -i for the plural form. Penis doesn't end in -us.

semi-funny post (cough cough not really cough cough) but you only make it an i when it ends in us (octopus- octopi, radius- radii, cactus-cacti) and penis ends in is

Its not just a rule of grammar that -us turns into -i, it's Latin. And anyways this is stupid because the two words have completely different endings.

But they sound the same... (Kinda)

IT WAS A JOKE PEOPLE. I'm pretty sure she realizes that of course it wouldn't be peni, it was just for humor. People have said more off-the-wall things than this so go argue over those

Someone never took latin.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No, because Cactus if from Latin, and the plural masculine form of a nominative noun is -i. And Penis doesn't end in -us, so it isn't a Latin root, so the plural wouldn't be Latin.
