2. Nouns – singular and plural

How to form the plural form of a Spanish noun depends on its ending. There are several different endings:

Nouns ending in a vowel get the ending -s:

perro – perros
escuela – escuelas

Nouns ending in a consonant have the ending -es:

español – españoles
doctor – doctores

Nouns ending in -z have it changed into c when the plural -es is added:

cruz – cruces
voz – voces

Nouns ending in -ión or -és lose the accent when the plural -es is added:

acción – acciones
francés – franceses

In some nouns, mostly compound, only the article changes: el lunes – los lunes, el paraguas – los paraguas, el rascacielos – los rascacielos.
