Spanish Plural Noun Forms

Spanish nouns can be singular or plural, and Spanish plural nouns will almost always end in -s or -es .

Here are the rules (and, of course, exceptions) you need to know to pluralize Spanish nouns.

Nouns that End in a Vowel

Let's first take a look at the rules for words that end in a vowel.

1. Just Add -s

Rule : If a singular noun ends in an unstressed vowel ( a, e, i, o, u ) or the stressed vowels á, é or ó , add -s to the end of a singular noun to make it plural.

Here are some examples.

There are a few exceptions to the above rule. Here are some you're likely to come across:

• The plural of no ( no ) is no es .
• The plural of yo ( I ) can be yo es or yo s .

2. Add -s or -es

Rule : If a singular noun ends in í or ú , you can add -s or -es to pluralize the word. The -es plural form is considered to be a bit fancier.

• The plural of sí ( yes ) is always sí es .
• The plurals of loanwords ( words that have come into Spanish from other languages ) that end in í or ú are formed by simply adding an -s to the end of the word. For example: popurrí s ( potpourris ), menú s ( menus )

Nouns that End in a Consonant

Now that you've got the rules for words ending in a vowel down, let's learn about words that end in a consonant.

Rule : If a singular noun ends in a vowel plus y or the consonants l, r, n, d, z, j, s, x, or ch , add -es .

• If a singular noun ends in z , you must change the z to a c before adding -es .

Rule : If a singular noun ends in a consonant cluster ( more than one consonant together ) or a vowel plus a consonant other than l, r, n, d, z, j, s, x, or ch , add -s .

• The plural of club ( club ) is club es .
• The plural of álbum ( album ) is álbum es .
• The singular and plural forms of words ending in -st or -zt are the same. Examples: el test , los test

Exceptional Exceptions

Ready for more exceptions? Here they come! Keep in mind that many of the words below are specialized or technical words, so you won't come across them too often!

Rule : If a singular noun ends in s or x , has more than one syllable, and the last syllable is unstressed, the singular and plural forms are the same.

Rule : If the second word in a singular compound noun is a plural noun, the singular and plural forms are the same.

If a singular noun ends in l, r, n, d, z or j and is a palabra esdrújula ( a word with three more syllables that is accented on the third-to-last syllable ), the singular and plural forms are the same.

Here is an example.

What About Accents?

Words ending in n or s that stress the final syllable in the singular lose the written accent in the plural form.

Words ending in n that stress the next-to-last syllable in the singular add a written accent in the plural form.

Difference between HOMEWORK and HOUSEWORK

Learn more about our courses

What’s the difference between homework and housework ?

These two words seem practically identical, but they actually have separate meanings and uses. I’ll clarify that in today’s lesson, so that you can be sure to use the right word.

And at the end I’ll also tell you about a common mistake that English learners often make with homework and housework.

How to use HOMEWORK in English

Homework refers to schoolwork that you do at home.

So if you’re in class, your teacher might give you homework – maybe a worksheet, maybe a book/article to read, maybe an exercise to do or something to research – and then you do that homework outside of class, at home.

Homework is usually extra practice or an additional assignment to help you practice what you learned inside class, or take your learning further.

How to use HOUSEWORK in English

Housework refers to the physical tasks that are necessary to take care of your house or apartment , the place where you live. We usually use housework to refer to cooking, cleaning, and laundry (washing your clothes).

So homework is schoolwork you do at home, and housework involves maintaining your living space.

What about “chores”?

One of my students asked if the word chores means the same thing as housework.

Yes – chores is another word we can use for those things that you have to do around the house. Washing dishes, sweeping the floor, cleaning the toilet, and so on. You probably don’t really enjoy them, but they need to get done.

And it’s also common to use this word chores you have a parent who makes their children help with these tasks. So the parent would say, “you have to do your chores.” You need to do those things around the house that you’re responsible for, like cleaning up your room or maybe helping with the laundry.

HOMEWORK and HOUSEWORK are always singular!

Now here’s an important detail – the word chore is countable, so you can have one chore, two chores, three chores, or a lot of chores to do.

But homework and housework are BOTH considered uncountable . So we always use them in the singular, always homework and housework, never homeworks or houseworks.

They are singular even when they refer to multiple tasks. So even if you have multiple assignments to do and multiple things to do in your house, it’s still only homework and housework.

You can talk about general quantity by saying a little homework/housework or a lot of homework/housework – but don’t use numbers, like “three homeworks,” and don’t add an S, “a lot of houseworks” – it’s not correct.

WORK / WORKS

This rule also applies to the word “work” – most of the time it’s singular.

Don’t say “I have a lot of works to do.” – the correct way would be “I have a lot of work to do.” You can say tasks, you can say projects, you can say assignments, you can say things – those can all be plural, but work is typically singular.

There’s one situation where we can say “works” and that’s specifically when we’re talking about works of art, works of music, or works of literature. So when we’re talking about productions in the artistic world, then sometimes we use works in the plural. For example, this is one of Picasso’s greatest works of art.

But in everyday life, when talking about the work you have to do, it’s always work, singular and same with homework and housework, singular.

Now you know the difference between homework and housework – and remember, doing homework is really important for reviewing and practicing what you learn!

A lot of our courses at Espresso English include homework. Sometimes that’s a quiz so you can test yourself on the lesson, and sometimes the homework is a writing task or speaking task where you can send your answers to our teaching team and get correction and feedback.

Our students often find this the most valuable part of our courses, because then you’re not just watching or reading or listening to me in English, but you’re also using English yourself. It really makes a difference in helping you learn and remember better.

There are many rules to form plural nouns.

The general rule in English to form plurals is to add an -s.

To make the plurals of nouns ending in -s, -x, -sh, -ch, -ss or -z, add an -es.

bus - buses

box - boxes

bush - bush

church - churches

glass - glasses

buzz - buzzes

Some nouns ending in -s or -z are made plural by the -s or -z being doubled prior to adding the -es.

quiz - quizzes

To make plurals from nouns ending in a -y where the letter before the -y is a consonant, change the y to an i and add an -es.

city - cities

country – countries

If the noun ending in a -y is preceded by a vowel, its plural is formed by adding an -s.

tray - trays

To make plurals of nouns ending in the letter -f or -fe, change -f and -fe to -v and add an -es.

wife - wives

There are a few exceptions to this rule. The nouns ending in an -ff take an -s in the plural form.

cliff - cliffs

The nouns ending in -ief, -oof, eef, ff, or -rf generally take -s to form plurals.

belief - beliefs

dwarf - dwarfs

gulf - gulfs

To make plurals of nouns ending in the letter -o, add -es. If -o is preceded by a vowel, just add -s.

hero - heroes

If -o is preceded by a vowel, then just add -s.

radio - radios

photo - photos

Some nouns remain the same when pluralized.

fish - fish

deer - deer

Irregular nouns follow no specific rules, so it’s best to memorize these or look them up in a good dictionary.

mouse - mice

Some irregular plurals are formed by changing the vowels.

foot - feet

goose - geese

Some nouns ending in -us can be made plural in two ways: by changing the -us to -i and by adding an -es.

cactus - cacti or cactuses

radius - radii or radiuses

stimulus - stimuli or stimuluses

terminus - termini or terminuses

Certain words that end in -us and have come to the English language from Latin become plural by replacing -us with -i.

alumnus - alumni

stimulus - stimuli

Words that end in -us and do not have a Latin origin don't come under this rule.

status - statuses

octopus - octopuses

If the singular noun ends in -is, the plural ends in -es.

axis - axes

If the singular noun ends in -on, the plural ends in -a.

phenomenon - phenomena

Some nouns have no plural form.

Some nouns have no singular form.

The basic rule is that a singular subject takes a singular verb, whereas a plural subject takes a plural verb.

Alex is working on his assignment.

Alex and Emma are working on their assignments.

Certain nouns look like plural nouns, but are actually singular and take singular verbs.

The news covers all major events.

Billiards is a popular game.

Certain nouns like "trousers" and "glasses" take plural verbs.

Where are my trousers?

The plurals of compound nouns are formed by adding -s to the principal word or headword.

brother-in-law – brothers-in-law

Compound nouns with the suffix -ful have two possible plural forms.

handful - handfuls or handsful

spoonful - spoonfuls or spoonsful

The version with -s at the end of the word: handfuls and spoonfuls, is a little more widely practiced though.

For compound nouns formed with a preposition, the -s is added to the noun.

passer-by - passers-by

When neither of the two words that make up a compound noun is a noun, the -s is added to the preposition.

grown-up - grown-ups

go-between - go-betweens
