Make common noun phrases plural
The idea
Change the singular article el or la to its plural form los or las.
Step by step
- Change the singular article el or la to its plural form los or las.
- For these nouns, add -s after a vowel or -es after a consonant; final z changes to c before -es.
- Check the spelling of the whole plural phrase, including the accent in lápices.
Example
What is the plural of “el libro”?
Answer
los libros
The complete plural expression is los libros; both the article and noun must be plural.
