Barongs

/bəˈrɔŋz/ noun

Definition

Plural of barong; multiple fish or knives of the barong type.

Etymology

Simple plural of barong, formed by adding the English plural suffix -s to the singular form.

Kelly Says

English plural formation is deceptively simple—just add -s!—but this works because English borrowed barong as a complete word rather than trying to pluralize it using Filipino or African grammar rules.
