Of course, happy to help! The plural form of hypothesis is hypotheses. Think of it like this: if you have one hypothesis, you have one idea or proposed explanation. But if you have multiple hypotheses, you have several different ideas or proposed explanations that you are considering. It's important to use the correct plural form when writing or speaking about hypotheses, as using an incorrect form can lead to confusion or miscommunication. So, always remember to add that extra "es" at the end when talking about more than one hypothesis. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
