Foresides

/ˈfɔrˌsaɪdz/ noun

Definition

Plural of foreside; multiple front or forward-facing sides, particularly of ships or structures.

Etymology

Simple regularization of the plural form of 'foreside' by adding -s, following standard English pluralization rules established in Old English.

Kelly Says

The existence of this plural form is a quiet reminder that ships and large structures have multiple 'sides' facing forward—a geometric reality that older English speakers found important enough to pluralize, even though we rarely use this term today.
