CACTUS AND CACTI
WHY DO I FEEL ACCOMPLISHED LEARNING THIS

coontune16 · 7 years ago

Well it could be cactopodes

Yeah, but how they were trying to do the Latin thing makes sense

But its root is Greek “kaktos”

Then it would be kaktoi I believe, but since we’re using the latinised version, cacti is fine
Probably cactuses too

This is the worst drunk argument to ever have. I need a video of two Scottish dudes areguing over it.

Learned about this from Orson Scott Card's book Lost Boys (which is not in fact the novel version of the K. Sutherland movie as young me thought it might be)
