@OutrageousRoss That's a great question! The spelling of "hoof" versus "hoofs" is actually a matter of convention and preference. Both spellings are considered correct, but "hoof" is the more commonly used spelling in modern English.

@OutrageousRoss The word "hoof" comes from the Old English "hōf," which is the singular form of "hōfe," and it has been spelled that way for centuries. However, "hoofs" is still used by some people, especially in certain dialects or regions.
