If the plural of 'quiz' were 'quizes', it would be pronounced kwyzez, not kwIzes. You'll find this doubling in a lot of words when they are inflected, though usually not with plurals: participles: club - clubbed, clubbing; pip - pipped; mat - matted alternative forms: pup - puppy; kit - kitten, kitty; dad - daddy Plurals of words ending in one 's' seem to be random in regard to doubling: gas - gases; bus - buses OR busses. |
