Some nouns change letters to form the plural, and others have the same spelling for the singular and plural. They don’t follow a rule, so you have to remember them. If a noun ends in ‘f’, change the ‘f’ to ‘v’ and add -es to form the plural. If a noun ends in ‘fe’, change the ‘fe’ to ‘v’ and add ‘-es’ to form the plural.
