I learned a new word today. what about you ? share it !

[KugelBlitz]

Today during a conversation with colleagues, I wanted to use the word “crisis” but plural.

I ended up confused like : Crisises ?

So my colleague just laughed and told me it sounds about the same but just spelled Crises when plural

Crisis (sss) : une crise
Crises (zzz) : des crises

Crisis (sss) : une crise

It's like : thesis >> theses
basis >> bases
etc...
