quick little word puzzle
 
Name a word that is singular, but if you add an s to the end, it becomes plural, and then if you add another s to the end, it becomes a singular word again.

I know of three, though there may be more.

"care - cares - caress" has to be one answer...

QuikSand 01-14-2004 01:23 PM

I think I have seen the word "largesse" spelled without a final "e" -- if that's legal, then "large" would be a shaky entry here. (Haven't looked it up)

care etc. is one of the ones of which I was thinking.

large etc. is not one of the ones of which I was thinking, but may qualify.

Yes, prince, princes, princess is another one.

fine. fines. finess?

FargoFreez aka fof playa 01-14-2004 01:37 PM

*Errr*

Finesse is spelled finesse. :)

Edit: Maybe *Bzzz* would be a better "wrong" noise.

FargoFreez aka fof playa 01-14-2004 01:42 PM

How bout "hi"?

Edit: No, I'm sure this is wrong.

FargoFreez aka fof playa 01-14-2004 01:48 PM

Bra muthafuckas.

albionmoonlight 01-14-2004 01:49 PM

Bra was the third one that I knew.

I'm not sure how proud I should be.

I'm bored.

And kind of lonely. :p
