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  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.


Singular Plural Example
-k, -g -ki, -gi bok - boki (side - sides)
-c, -j, -l, -ż (-rz) -ce, -i, -le, -że (-rze) garage - garages (garage - garages)
-ć, -ń, -ś, -ź -you, -no, -sie, -zie koń - konie (horse - horses)
-[everything else] - [everything else] + y las - lasy (forest - forests)
