Why do you add es to the end of words?
The letters "es" form the conjugations or plurals of words that already end in an S, X, Z, CH, or SH sound, because the additional sibilant S is pronounced in that way.Example : The word "kiss" already ends in a long sibilant S. The plural "kisses" adds an entire "ES" sound instead of extending the sibilant. The spelling reflects this.Example : The word "catch" becomes "catches", because linguistically you cannot add a sibilant to the end of the "shh" sound.* Only SOME of the words that end in an O use the "es" to form their plural, and this is not a consistent occurrence. Examples are hero (heroes) and potato (potatoes).
