Note
Only some meanings of avocado take this plural. It counts the fruit (two avocadoes for guacamole) and the trees, Persea americana, growing in an orchard. The color sense is uncountable, so a kitchen painted avocado never becomes "avocadoes." The spelling with -es is the less common variant: avocados is the usual plural, though both are accepted in standard writing.
