one beef
multiple beefs

..if you're talking about personal and not food

how come the plural of the animal chicken is chickens until you kill and cook it, then the plural of the meat is chicken

Why is it called a building if it's already been built? Why was the bandage wound around the wound? Is the color named after the fruit or vise versa? What the forget is with "ough"? Why is thought, bought, fought and brought sound like aught or ot as in pot, yet enough, rough, tough and slough are like uff as in stuff? Winding wind? The forget is with that? To lead the lead pickaxe to the stone? Why is it the foot, book, good, hood and look's "oo" sound different from aloof, broom, floor, door, flood and blood? English is loving dumb

okay this I've never noticed before and I'm interested about it


Is the color named after the fruit or vise versa?
It's named after the fruit.

Before oranges were a thing in Angland, the color orange was called geoluhread (yellow-red). It's also why a person with orange hair is called a redhead, instead of the more proper term, ginger.

That's actually incredibly stupid now that I think about it. Why name it after a fruit? What were we thinking?

apparently loving "beeves" but only if it's the 1600s
