In German, plurals are usually not formed by adding -s the way English often does.
- The singular is das Kind (the child).
- The plural is die Kinder (the children).
The ending -er is one of several common plural endings in German (-e, -er, -en, -n, -s, or no change). You simply have to learn the plural form with each noun.
The article die is the regular plural definite article for all genders in the nominative case, so:
- das Kind → die Kinder
- der Hund → die Hunde
- die Frau → die Frauen
