Octopi is misconceived and octopodes pedantic. Octopi derives from the mistaken notion that octopus is Latin. It is not. It is (Latinized) Greek, from oktopous, gender masculine, whose plural is oktopodes. If the word were Latin, it would be octopes (’eight-foot’) and the plural octopedes, analogous to centipedes and millipedes, as the plural form of pes (’foot’) is pedes. In modern, informal Greek, it is called khtapodi, gender neuter, with plural form khtapodia. However,I believe we can gramatically accept either way, but since u want to be official, then those are the facts. well if you want to be correct SUPER TREKKIE, its OCTOPUSES.

Instead of octopuses, it should be octopi. Your grammar for plural octopus is incorrect. Instead of octopuses, it should be octopi.
