Avo …

[HoxtHun]

Have we done this already? Just picked up the Waitrose Weekend paper …

And they aren’t defacing crucial words

They are still making appalling errors that should have been checked - there really is no substitute for the correct spelling and grammar!

Pedants, please advise!
What is the plural of avocado?
Does it follow the potato and tomato rule?
I’ve often pondered this as I write my weekly shopping list.

What is the plural of avocado? Avocados.

Well, I trust Ocado …

@HoxtHun and @PedantScorner thanks for clearing this up, but I can’t help but wonder why it isn’t avocadoes…

Waitrose!! Can’t believe this got through the marketing department 😂

Although I just read a post from someone who has been promoted to headteacher today:

”Your educated”
”Tries and tribulations”

It starts in the schools 🙈🙈

Oh well. A full week and no reply.

Guess they just don’t care.

It might have been a deliberate ploy to get SM buzzing with posts from pedants. Free advertising.
