I don't completely understand the question. If you're asking about plural nouns, you can add an s to almost any word UNLESS they end in, s, x, ch, sh because if a word ends in s, x, ch, or sh you have to add es. If a word ins in z, you have to add zes. Some words change completely when they're plural. A few words are the same for plural and singular. For example, the plural of dog is dogs, the plural of dress is dresses, church, churches, wolf, wolves, mouse, mice, but the plural of sheep is sheep, the plural of deer is deer.
