The English language contains many words where the plural form is shorter than the singular. Most of these are words we have taken from foreign languages. The archetypical example is Latin words ending in -um; the plural ends in -a. e.g. datum - pl. data ; erratum - pl errata ; stratum - pl. strata ; (e.g. stands for exemplum gratum, meaning example given. pl -exempla grata)
When changing a plural word with the ending "a" to a singular word, you would typically remove the "a" and the word may change to a different form altogether. For example, "agenda" changes to "agendum."

"Plemiona" in Polish translates to "tribes" in English. "PL" is the country code for Poland, so "plemiona pl" would likely refer to the Polish version of the online game "Tribal Wars."
