But some nouns are special. They are called <span data-no-translation>irregular plural nouns<\/span>.<\/strong> These words do not follow the normal rule. Instead, they change their form in different ways. For example, <span data-no-translation>one man<\/span> becomes <span data-no-translation>two men<\/span>, \u0430 \u043d\u0435 <span data-no-translation>two mans<\/span>. Another example is <span data-no-translation>one child<\/span> becoming <span data-no-translation>two children<\/span>.
