It all starts with spores, you probably have some sort of fungi spores on your body right now but you can't see them with the naked eye.

I usually pronounce it fun-Gus if it's singular and fun-guy if it's plural.

It's not wrong for the plural to be funguses (following normal English rules for pluralisation), fungi is the plural if you follow Latin rules for pluralisation, which is acceptable and correct practice in English to. Fun-gay would not be correct as the plural of fungus in English because it's just not and incorrect following Latin because that's not how the noun Fungus would be declined in Latin.

I pronounce can't carnt. I drink out of a glarss but my windows are made of glass, I swim on a barth but wash in a bath. I guess I'm just a very confused individual.
