Ah, the classic question about the plural form of potato! Well, the plural form of potato is simply "potatoes". It's understandable that this may be confusing, as the singular form ends in '-o' and normally this could be changed to '-oes' for the plural form (like with the word 'tomato' becoming 'tomatoes'). However, with 'potato', the most common way to pluralize it is to simply add an '-es' at the end of the word, just as you would with most other nouns that end in consonant + vowel + 'o'.
So, to summarize, if you have one potato, you can say "I have a potato", but if you have more than one, you would say "I have potatoes". Easy, right? Always remember, learning a language is like peeling an onion - it can be a little bit frustrating at times, but the more you practice and stay curious, the easier it gets.
