swordfishes
Long-billed ocean predators
Swordfishes is the plural of swordfish, a large ocean fish with a long, flat, pointed bill resembling a sword.
The fish is prized both as a game fish and for its firm, steak-like flesh: We ordered the grilled swordfishes at the seafood restaurant.
The standard plural is swordfish, but swordfishes appears when emphasizing multiple individual fish or species.
