Bunns

/bʌnz/ noun

Definition

Plural of bunn; multiple buns or instances of the archaic spelling of 'bun.'

Etymology

Regular plural formation from the older spelling 'bunn,' adding -s to indicate more than one.

Kelly Says

Before spelling standardization, pluralizing 'bunn' with an 's' instead of changing the double-n shows how inconsistent English used to be—you could write the same word three different ways on the same page.
