English words form plurals by adding an S (bats, cats). When a word ends with an "o" or with an "s" (normally a double s) , the plural is formed by adding "ES" (mosquitoes, embargoes, witnesses). Words ending in a Y will replace it with "IES" (skies, flies). Note that words adopted from Latin ending in "us" are normally pluralized by using the Latin "i" form (octopi, syllabi). However, at least one word, "fetus", has adopted an English form as "fetuses".
