Pluaralizing nouns can be tricky sometimes. There are several rules on how to pluralize nouns and there are some nouns which don't follow these rules.
ADD -S: Many nouns can be pluralized simply by adding -s.
EXAMPLES: nouns, verbs, birds, cans, books, shirts.
ADD -ES: Nouns which end with sh, ch, x, and ss are pluralized by
adding -es.
EXAMPLES: churches, foxes, wishes, kisses, speeches, boxes.
DROP Y, ADD -IES; Some nouns which end with y are pluralized by
dropping the y and adding -ies.
EXAMPLES: flies, bunnies, stories, jellies, tries.
NOT: plays, toys, keys.
IRREGULAR: Some nouns don't follow rules.
EXAMPLES: mouse-mice, goose-geese, tooth-teeth, foot-feet, man-men.
