Nouns have both singular and plural forms.
Singular means one.
Plural means more than one.

To make the plural form of most nouns simply add an ~s to the end of the noun.
Some nouns require that you change the ending of the word before you add an ~s. Please study the following rules carefully. They will help you learn how to correctly form plural nouns.
If the noun ends with a consonant + ~y, form the plural by changing the ~y to ~i and then add ~es
Examples:
baby ---> babies
city ---> cities
If the noun ends with a vowel + y, form the plural by adding ~s.
Examples:
boy ---> boys
day ---> days
If the noun ends with ~ef or ~f, form the plural by changing the ~f to ~v and then add ~s.
Examples:
wife ---> wives
wolf ---> wolves
If the noun ends with ~sh, ~ch, ~ss, ~x, form the plural by adding ~es
Examples:
wish ---> wishes
match ---> matches
glass ---> glasses
