Celeriacs

/səˈlɛriæks/ noun

Definition

Plural of celeriac; multiple celery root vegetables.

Etymology

Regular English plural formed by adding '-s' to 'celeriac,' maintaining the unusual suffix structure from the singular form while creating a straightforward plural.

Kelly Says

The plural 'celeriacs' highlights an oddity in English vegetable naming—we don't usually say 'rootiacs' for roots or 'carrotics' for carrots, making this word feel like a linguistic experiment that actually stuck.
