Noun plurals in Croatian grammar are formed by adding specific suffixes to the singular form of the noun. In Croatian, there are three different genders: masculine, feminine, and neuter. Plural forms can vary depending on the gender of the noun and different declensions. Learning to form plurals in Croatian is essential for communication and understanding as students progress in their language learning journey.
