How to construct Plural in Polish
To construct the plural of a noun, you have to identify the ending in the singular and then refer to this table:
| Singular | Plural | Example |
|---|---|---|
| -ka, -ga | -ki, -gi | noga - nogi (leg - legs) |
| -ca, -ea, -ia, -ja, -la, -ża (-rza) | -ce, -ee, -ie, -je, -le, -that (s) | róża – róże (rose - roses) |
| - [Everything else] + a | - [Everything else] + y | torba – torby (bag - bags) |
Remember that rz sounds like ż
- burza - burze (storm - storms)
Plural of neutral nouns
To form the plural of neutral nouns it is necessary to change the -o , the -e or the -um to -a
- window - windows
- museum - museums
The plurals of nouns ending in -ę are irregular and we will see them later ...
Plural of masculine nouns
To pluralize masculine nouns, look at the last letter and they follow similar rules to feminine nouns.

| -k, -g | -ki, -gi | bok - boki (side - sides) |
| -c, -j, -l, -ż (-rz) | -ce, -i, -le, -że (-rze) | garage - garages (garage - garages) |
