GENERAL RULES.

To form the plural of a noun, we generally add an s: cupcups; dog dogs; catcats. If the noun ends in s, -ss, -x ,-ch, -tch, -sh and-o, we add the ending es: church-churches; box-boxes. Yet there are some exceptions: pianopianos, photophotos; video videos, disco-discos. For words ending in f and fe, in order to make plural we follow the next rule. We change - f or -fe to -v before adding -es, e.g. leaf - leaves. The exceptions are: roof - roofs, proof-proofs, chief - chiefs, belief - beliefs, chef - chefs, cafe - cafes, handkerchief - handkerchiefs, safe - safes.
