Arugolas

/əˈruː.ɡə.ləz/ noun

Definition

Plural of arugola; multiple plants or portions of the leafy green vegetable with peppery flavor.

Etymology

From Italian 'rucola' + English plural suffix '-s'. The plural form follows standard English pluralization of the vegetable name.

Kelly Says

The plural 'arugolas' shows English speakers' confusion about this word—some spell it arugola, some arugula, creating unnecessary plurals for a plant that Italians simply call 'rucola.'
