Regular plurals
We generally make singular words plural by changing their endings to -i or -e.
SINGOLARE | PLURALE | ESEMPI |

-a | â -e â -i | La casa â Le case Il problema â I problemi |
-o | -i | Il libro â I libri La mano â Le mani |
-e | -i | Il cane â I cani La nave â Le navi |

- Words ending with an accented vowel:
La cittĂ â Le cittĂ
