  • In the Tatar language Nouns don't change into PLURAL after any NUMBER, i.e. they remain SINGULAR:
2 keşe - 2 men / persons - 2 человека
3 bala - 3 children - 3 ребёнка
5 pesi - 5 cats - 2 кошки

  • Where then the PLURAL form is used?
  • When there are no numbers, for example:
[mp3] Balalar mәktәpkә kitte.- Children went to school. - Дети пошли в школу.
[mp3] Analar qaldı. - Mothers stayed. - Матери остались.
[mp3] Kitaplar satılıp bette. - Books were sold out. - Книги были распроданы.

  • Also some UNCOUNTABLE (!) nouns are written in PLURAL to express, for instance, poetic air:
[mp3] Küklәr ayazaydı. - The sky cleared up. - Небо прояснилось. (Literally = skies – небеса)
[mp3] Bülmәne cıyıştırğaç, hawalar alışındı. - The air got fresh after they did the room / after the room was done. - После уборки воздух в комнате посвежел. (Literally = airs – ? воздушные пространства комнаты ?)
