Octopodes* plural of octopus (octo is Greek root, odes is Greek root plural)
Go ahead and negative this comment, same as last time a marine biologist called bullshit on a Maine biology comic needing some correction.
Although dictionaries will show words that significant parts of the population say are wrong, I’m still going to say octopuses is also correct because octopus is an English word and English usually pluralises like that
Octopusen is not common since octopus is too new to get that style of English plural
Of course significant parts of the population spell “than” with an e, or “then” with an a, and/or don’t know the difference between it’s and its
Would you care to pluralise octagon?
Must have been the wind
I used to be an adventurer-octopus like you, but then I took a sea urchin to the tentacle.
