We normally form plural nouns by adding -s to the singular noun. book > books car > cars student > students
We add -es if the singular noun ends in -s , -sh, -ch or -x.
bus > buses dish > dishes church > churches box > boxes
Some nouns ending in -o add -es to form the plural::
tomato > tomatoes potato > potatoes hero > heroes Other nouns ending in -o, add -s only:
piano > pianos radio > radios
Nouns ending in consonant + -y, change the -y into -i and add -ies:
city > cities baby > babies family > families country > countries E N G L I S H G R A M M A R Singular and plural nouns Alfonso López Rodríguez
