A singular piece of spaghetti is called a spaghetto.
Shouldn't it be spaghettus?
It would be spaghetto, as -i endings are used for masculine plural words, with -o endings being masculine singular words.
No I am not Italian.
By that logic, should it not be spaghettil? My Italian is criminally rudimentary but I thought that "il" is singular masculine and "i" is plural.
"il" is the masculine singular form of "the", while "i" is the masculine plural form of "the". For example: "the cats" would be "i gatti". I would have used "the spaghetti" as an example, but that's going into articles beginning with a vowel.

What I'd like to know is how organisms survive in the Dead Sea with over 33% salt content.
I would assume salt filtering respiratory systems allow for marine life to live in the Dead Sea without suffering from high consumption/inhalation of salt? I don't know, I'm just thinking some very basic stuff.

Well, "salt filtering" could only be a possibility when the water in context is saturated with the salt (I assume it's a mixture of salts anyway). Since some salts are soluble (and of course, the major you'd see in a marine body are sodium and potassium salts which are all soluble). The animal would have to have a respiratory system that can crystallize the salts to a safe, ingestible level.
Upon filtering the salt, the water would still be saturated with the salt, which is lethal to the animal's body. I'm fairly sure there's no respiratory system advanced enough to the point of performing crystallization on a repeated basis.

Thinking out of my head here, as well. Haven't done too much research on the topic, but this is what I feel is the case.

Can confirm, it’s spaghetto. Just like ravioli becomes raviolo.

We already have a poll but we might make another one, if we gather enough good options to contest @Etjama's Curse of Knowledge.
The leveling up happens as a natural process of gaining insight
