   1. dishs
   2. dishes
   3. dishies
   4. dishe
   Show answer

   Answer: dishes

   Dish ends in -sh, so we add -es: dish + es = dishes.

2. The plural of 'tooth' is 'tooths.'

   Show answer

   Answer: city→cities

   City ends in consonant + y, so y changes to i and we add es: cit + i + es = cities. Toy, day, and boy end in vowel + y, so they just add -s.
