The plural form of 'goose' is 'geese.' The shift from 'oo' to 'ee' is an intriguing peculiarity of English language. This irregular plural form throws back to the language's Germanic roots through a process known as ablaut. In Germanic languages, the heart of a word, the vowel sound, frequently changes to denote different versions of the word. Just like how in English, 'man' becomes 'men.' It's an interesting trip down the language history lane we've just taken, isn't it? You never know what stories a simple word like 'goose' could hide in its feathers.
