Question

What is the plural form of peanut? (usando maní)

Answer 1

I'm not sure, but I don't think the tilde changes the basic rule that you just add an "s" to the end of singular noun that ends with a vowel. Maní => manís

I just checked my professional dictionary. It translates "manís" as "plural of peanut". It also translates "maníes" the same way. I guess you can use either and be understood.

Answer 2

maníes or manises - or you could just say los cacahuetes!

Answer 3

Well, the Castillian Spanish equivalent would be los cacahuetes

...and I think the culinary form maní would just be manís

(This was my first attempt I only changed it because Margaret's answer in this thread looked more credible than mine lol )
