why is a goose one and geese are many?
So why when people have goose bumps y don't we call them geese bumps?
I always call them geese bumps and people think I'm crazy! well I am I guess!

so if you only had one, would you call that a geese bump too? they call one a goose bump and more than one goose bumps. the only thing they pluralize is bumps. because you are describing the bumps not the geese. It's like a ring worm. you are talking about a worm not a ring. it doesn't become rings worm. it becomes ring worms.

OH is it geese? I always say gooses, just like mooses, and fishes, and deers. I will start saying geese bumps instead of gooses bumps now, just to help you.

LOL. Be original! I am criticized by my family sometimes for doing and saying things that are not the "norm"; but I look at it like this, I have one life here.
I am going to be me!
So call'em Geese bumps! LOL.
Have a really great weekend!

Because the plural is already in the word "bumps".
Bumps is what you have lots of, not geese.

One goose has a lot of bumps, so you have goose bumps.
