Is possum plural for opossum?

or whats the difference?Is possum plural for opossum?
Possum is the short form of opossum. The plural can be either opossums or opossum.Is possum plural for opossum?
Possum is a shortened version of opossum. It originated from the hillbilly vernacular. Opossum is the correct way to say it. Two or more of them are opossums. Any way you say it, they are nasty little creatures! hope this helps
Nope, it's opposum(s). 'possum is just a shorter version, mainly because the initial 'o' vowel is soft and often gets dropped.
