For most nouns ending in "y," you change the "y" to "i" and add "es" to form the plural. For example, "city" becomes "cities" and "baby" becomes "babies."
Nouns form their plurals in different ways depending on the noun. For most nouns, you add "-s" or "-es" to the end (e.g., cat - cats, box - boxes). Some nouns have irregular plural forms that do not follow this rule (e.g., child - children, tooth - teeth).
