Here is an example The Royal Canadian Mounties ride on their mounts. If you could not differentiate you would not know who or what is riding what or who. The Royal Canadian mounts ride on their mounts would not work. Most nouns add an "s". (This is what's really happening in the example above. The singular is Mountie.) Nouns that end in "s", "x" and "z" add "es". (But words that end in "us" drop the "us" and change to "i" like cactus>cacti.) Nouns that end in "y" change the "y" to an "i" and add "es". Some nouns have a totally different pluralization: mouse>mice, ox>oxen, datum>data. Some words borrowed from other languages use "i" for pluralization.
