<div class="IPBDescription">anyone know?</div> My friend and I cant come to an agreement over the plural of 'Onos'.

I say its just 'Onos', he says its 'Onoses'.

I looked in dictionaries, unfortunately the ending -os is not common at all so i cant find the correct english pluralisation.

Anyone know/have an idea?

    it's "Onoi"

    "-os" is a greek ending

    Good question. If it were Onus, I'd say the plural would be Oni. But because it's Onos, my preference would be with the same way you do the plural for "fish" or "deer"... Onos.

    I think the plural of Onos is called by the marines as trouble <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
