## Arabic Plurals
Pashto has many Arabic loan words, and people often **use the Arabic plural forms of these loan words**. We won't get into how plurals work in Arabic here, but you will learn to recognize and use these plural through lots of exposure.
For now, see if you can notice some of the basic patterns.

## Masculine nouns with feminine plurals
Above we learned that **masculine nouns** that fit into the <Link to="/nouns/nouns-unisex/#1-basic">#1 basic pattern</Link>, we add the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ونه", f: "óona" }} /> ending to make it plural. But there is also another interesting thing that happens in Pashto:
**Masculine nouns ending in a consonant can become feminine for the plural form**. Often you will hear both forms of the plural, the regular masculine form with <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ونه", f: "óona" }} /> and the feminine form as well.

In Pashto **there are many, many ways that nouns become plural**. It may seem overwhelming at first to learn _all_ these different ways of nouns becoming plural. In the beginning, just look at a few. Then keep coming back and see if you're getting familiar with all the different ways that nouns become plural.
Basically, to make a noun plural you have the following options:
1. If possible, <Link to="/inflection/inflection-intro">inflect</Link> it.
2. Add a <Link to="/nouns/nouns-plural/#plural-endings">plural ending</Link>, or
1. <Link to="/inflection/inflection-intro">Inflect</Link> it.
2. If the word isn't inflectable you add a <Link to="/nouns/nouns-plural/#plural-endings">plural ending</Link>, or
3. If the word has an <Link to="/nouns/nouns-plural/#irregular-plurals">irregular plural</Link> use that.
## Plural by Inflection
To understand how to inflect words, have a look at the <Link to="/inflection/inflection-patterns/">5 and a half inflection patterns</Link>. Here are some examples of nouns made plural using inflection.
To understand how to inflect words, have a look at the <Link to="/inflection/inflection-patterns/">5 inflection patterns</Link>. Here are some examples of words made plural using inflection.
If a word is plural and also needs to be inflected for some other reason, we use the second or "double inflection" ending in <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ـو", f: "o" }} />. For more info about this "double inflection," see the <Link to="/inflection/inflection-intro">inflection</Link> section.

## Plural Endings
Pashto also has plural endings that you can add on the end of nouns to make them plural. Many words don't fit into the <Link to="/inflection/inflection-patterns/">5 and a half inflection patterns</Link>, and so we need to use these plural endings. In some cases, even if a word inflects, people will often use a plural ending instead.
### Masculine Plural Endings
#### Plural Ending ونه - óona
#### Inanimate Plural Ending ونه - óona
This only works with **masculine nouns** that fit into <Pattern1 />. In other words, this only works with masculine nouns that end in a consonant or a shwa sound <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ـه", f: "u" }} />.
This ending is _usually_ used with **inanimate** things (non-living things, ie. not with people or animals).

##### With Pattern #3 Animate Nouns
**Note**: If the word ends with a non-shwa vowel, (ie. not 'u') a <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ګ", f: "g" }} /> can be added to seperate the ending and the vowel.
This ending is also used with <Pattern3 /> animate nouns, nouns people or animals that end in a stressed <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ی", f: "áy" }} />.
In this case, the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ی", f: "áy" }} /> gets squished into a little filler <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ی", f: "iy" }} /> sound before the ending.
**Note:** Sometimes the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ونه", f: "óona" }} /> ending is used with animate nouns, and somethimes the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ان", f: "áan" }} /> ending is used with inanimate nouns as well. For example:
<PluralTable>

[
{ p: "زمری", f: "zmaráy", e: "lion" },

</PluralTable>
Note that with these kinds of animate nouns we have a choice to either use the plural <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ان", f: "áan" }} /> ending, or to just use the inflected form for plural.

##### With Nouns Ending in a Long Vowel
If a noun ends ends in a long vowel, the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ان", f: "áan" }} /> ending is used regardless of if it's animate or inanimate.
If the long vowel is an <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ا", f: "aa" }} /> or <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "و", f: "o" }} />, a <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ګ", f: "g" }} /> as a spacer between the ending and the vowel.
<PluralTable>
{[
[

### Feminine Plural Endings
#### Plural Ending انې - áane
##### With Pattern #1 Animate Nouns
Just like with masculine #1 animate nouns, we can also add a <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "انې", f: "áane" }} /> ending to feminine <Pattern1 /> nouns. Notice that this is the same as the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ان", f: "áan" }} /> ending, but with an added <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ې", f: "e" }} /> on the end to signify femininity.
<PluralTable>
{[
[
{ p: "ډاکټره", f: "DakTára", e: "doctor (f.)" },
{ p: "ډاکټرانې", f: "DakTaráane", e: "doctors (f.)" },
],
[
{ p: "چرګه", f: "chárga", e: "hen (f.)" },
{ p: "چرګان", f: "chargáan", e: "hens (f.)" },
],

{ p: "نرسانې", f: "nursáane", e: "nurses (f.)" },
]
]}
</PluralTable>
Notice that with these types of nouns we have the option of either using these plural endings or just inflecting them.
<PluralTable>
{[

{ p: "ډاکټره", f: "DakTára", e: "doctor (f.)" },
{ p: "ډاکټرانې", f: "DakTaráane", e: "doctors (f.)", sub: "w/ plural ending" },

{ p: "چرګې", f: "chárge", e: "hens (f.)", sud: "inflected" },
],
]}
</PluralTable>
##### With Pattern #3 Animate Nouns
In the same way we added the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ان", f: "áan" }} /> ending to masculine <Pattern3 /> animate nouns, we can add the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "انې", f: "áane" }} /> ending to feminine <Pattern3 /> animate nouns.
<PluralTable>
{[
[
{ p: "پاکستانۍ", f: "paakistaanúy", e: "a Pakistani (f.)"},
{ p: "پاکستانیانې", f: "paakistaaniyáane", e: "Pakistanis (f.)"},

},
{
p: "بچیانې", f: "bachiyáane", e: "children (f.)",

],
]}
</PluralTable>
Again, with this form we have the option to use either the plural endings or just use the inflected form (which doesn't change from the feminine plain form).
<PluralTable>

#### With Feminine Nouns Ending in a Long Vowel
##### The وې ending
If a noun ends ends in a long vowel <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ا", f: "aa" }} />, <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "و", f: "o" }} />, or <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "و", f: "o" }} /> the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "وې", f: "وې" }} /> ending can be added for plurals.
Depending on the dialect, you can either add <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "وې", f: "we" }} />, or <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ګانې", f: "gáane" }} /> to the end of the word to make it plural.

##### The وې ending
If a noun ends ends in a long vowel <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ا", f: "aa" }} />, <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "و", f: "o" }} />, or <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "و", f: "o" }} /> the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "وې", f: "وې" }} /> ending can be added for plurals.
When a noun is a <Link to="/nouns/nouns-unisex/">unisex noun</Link>, you often add an <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ې", f: "e" }} /> on the end of the <Link to="/nouns/nouns-plural/#animate-plural-ending-inlineps-optsopts-ps-p-ان-f-aan--">animate <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ان", f: "aan" }} /> ending</Link> instead of using the <Link to="/nouns/nouns-plural/#with-feminine-nouns">regular inflection</Link>.

##### The ګانې ending
## Irregular Plurals
Often instead of the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "وې", f: "وې" }} /> ending, people use the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "انې", f: "áane" }} /> ending with the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ګ", f: "g" }} /> spacer. This can also be used for singular feminine nouns ending in <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ې", f: "e" }} />.
Some nouns just have completely irregular plural forms.

##### With Feminine Nouns Ending in ي or ۍ
## Collective Plurals
The <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "انې", f: "áane" }} /> can be added to feminine nouns ending in <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ي", f: "ée" }} /> or <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ۍ", f: "úy" }} />, although this is _usually done with animate nouns_.
Some nouns are just always considered plural, often because they are made up of a bunch of individual pieces.
<Examples opts={opts}>
{[
{ p: "خلک", f: "khalk", e: "people/populace (m. pl.)" },
{ p: "اوړه", f: "ooRú", e: "flour (m. pl.)" },
{ p: "برنج", f: "birínj", e: "rice (m. pl.)" },
{ p: "اوبه", f: "oobú", e: "water (f. pl.)" },
{ p: "جوار", f: "jawáar", e: "corn (m. pl.)" },
{ p: "زهر", f: "zahur", e: "poison (m. pl.)" },
{ p: "دروغ", f: "darógh", e: "lie, falsehood (m. pl.) " },
{ p: "پیاز", f: "piyáaz", e: "onion (m. pl.)" },
{ p: "سامان", f: "saamáan", e: "stuff, things (m. pl.)" },
]}
</Examples>
## Masculine nouns with feminine plurals
Above we learned that **masculine nouns** that fit into the <Link to="/nouns/nouns-unisex/#1-basic">#1 basic pattern</Link>, we add the <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ونه", f: "óona" }} /> ending to make it plural. But there is also another interesting thing that happens in Pashto:
**Masculine nouns ending in a consonant can become feminine for the plural form**. Often you will hear both forms of the plural, the regular masculine form with <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ونه", f: "óona" }} /> and the feminine form as well.
