The Plural of &quot;Clitoris&quot;?

11 Mar 2006

Hmmm....the plural of "Clitoris"?
I just wondered if it could be 'Clittori"
Clittoris' - (that's "S" - apostrophe â€“ if you're taking notes)
or even Clittorises -- just doesn't sound so good does it?
I have unfortunately, not yet been in a position - (ahem) and close proximity to more than one, and their proud owners, for this to be validated, and this pressing problem to be explored fully in depth.
I just wondered if anyone has any suggestions to resolve this (cunni) liguistic issue.
Yours worried of South London.

Not even if it was Latin. -i is for second-declension nouns ending in -us, not -is.
It's actually from Greek, and my sources inform me that the plural is "clitorides". But I expect you could get away with "clitorises" too (and far fewer funny looks).
(I know very little Latin grammar. Google is a great substitute for knowledge)

We get confused ................... by the time we've sorted out where the A-spot, B-spot, E-spot, F-Spot and G-spot are supposed to be we've forgotten what we were looking for in the first place!
