The plural nouns are the nouns that refer to two or more elements. For example: dogs, chairs, theories.
They are written with an “s” at the end and, therefore, modify the verb, which must agree in number with the subject of the sentence. For example: The Boys they played. (plural noun / plural verb) / The boy juice. (singular noun / singular verb)
Some plural nouns (in general, what in the singular end in a consonant), in addition to the "s", add an "e" to facilitate pronunciation. For example: paperit is, clockit is.
