Mais M.
Plural of "eyes" in Maori? Kia Ora, Karu means eye. Would Karungā be eyes? Is "ngā" always added to the end of a word to make it plural? Thank you!

Mais you may have already figured it out but there are only a few words in Māori that change when plural. Like tamaiti/tamariki tangata/tāngata. Mostly plurals are demonstrated by the determiner He karu - an eye/ some eyes Ngā karu - the eyes Te karu - the eye
