Formation of plural nouns in German #3
posted 12 months ago
We now know how to form the plural of feminine, masculine and neuter nouns. CLICK 1; CLICK 2;
However, there are still some exceptions which I haven’t mentioned yet:
1. masculine and neuter nouns that end -el in the singular usually add nothing in the plural (except for der Muskel = muscle, der Pantoffel and der Stachel = sting -> add -n)
e.g. der Esel - die Esel
2. All nouns that are of foreign origin or end with a single vowel (except for -e) add an -s in the plural:
e.g. das Hobby - die Hobbys
