Did you know that codfish is the plural of cod? It refers to two or more or in the case of restaurant menus, it typically denotes any type of cod in the species (and often some fish that are not cod but are sold as such). :o)
Actually, I think the original term was cotfish and it became cod and codfish, but maybe cotfish was actually something different?
