*The citation form is the singular nominative
*Regular masculine nouns ending in consonant adds –ă in plural. If in –i, 'i' is dropped and replaced with –ă. If it already ends in –ă, it remains unchanged.
*Regular feminine nouns ending in consonant add –ăr in plural. If ending in –i, -i is dropped and –ăr is added. If the singular ends in –u, just –r is added. The plural form is also used for singular dative-genitive.
*Regular neuter nouns undergo u-umlaut in the plural. The only vowels affected are a, ă and â:
**a > o
**ă > u
**â > u
*Some nouns have a –j–/palatalization or –v– that appears before endings beginning in a vowel but is dropped otherwise.
*A few nouns (known as consonant stems) have irregular plurals, mostly involving either i-umlaut or reversal of u-umlaut (i.e. singular has u-umlaut that is lost in plural). Masculine and neuter nouns have use the singular form for dative/genitive, while feminine nouns use the plural form. Some examples of common nouns with irregular plurals are listed below:
**mând (M) > mindă
**foðr (M) > feðră
**moðr (F) > meðrăr
**šistr (F) > šistrăr
**broðr (M) > breðră
**dotr (F) > detrăr
**fot (M) > fetă
**tund (F) > tindăr
**not (F) > netăr
**džov (F) > džavăr
**corn (F) > carnăr
