Explanation:

The noun is the word we use to name objects, people, countries, etc. Like the articles, they have gender (feminine or masculine), and number (singular or plural). These characteristics must always coincide with those of the article.

To classify the noun we take into account the number (one or more than one).

In other words, the singular class is an element.

The plural, on the other hand, is distinguished by the presence of more than one element.

1) Words ending in a vowel -A, -E, -O; "-S" must be added.

Examples:

la copa: las copas

el tigre: los tigres

el libro: los libros

2) Words that end in consonant, should be added "-ES".

el pantalón: los pantalones

el árbol: los árboles

el rey: los reyes

la pared: las paredes

el comedor: los comedores

3) Nouns ending in -S or -X have a special treatment. If the word is acute (strongly in the last syllable) the plural is formed by adding "-ES".

el anís: los anises

Words that end -S or -X and are not acute, remain unchanged to form the plural, that is, they remain the same, only the article will indicate the number.

el paréntesis: los paréntesis

el tórax: los tórax

4) Words ending in -Z change to –CES.

la nariz: las narices

5) Some nouns that only allow the singular form.

el oeste

la salud

6) Some nouns that only admit the plural form.

las vacaciones

los honorarios

7) Ambiguous nouns can be said in either genre as both are considered correct. The choice of gender is the full decision of the speaker.

They have no plural

1) Non-accounting nouns that designate matters or substances.

el hielo

2) Abstract names.

el hambre

3) Collective names
