Key concepts
3 concepts
- 1
The most common way to form a plural is to add -s to the end of a word, but if a word ends in ch, sh, s, x, or z, you typically add -es.
- 2
If a word ends in a consonant and -y, you change the -y to -i and add -es to make it plural.
- 3
When a word ends in -f or -fe, you often change it to -v and add -es to form the plural.
