The Japanese suffixes which are equivalent to pleural-indicating "s" or "es" in English would be "ら”, "ども", or "たち(達)".
Hope this helps.

So you aren't native Japanese, right? I don't know anyone who uses kanji for ばか or for the pluralization suffixes. My understanding is that only poor writers do.
You never answered the question the previous time I asked a few days ago, but I swear I've seen you claim to be a native speaker somewhere on here before.
Edit This isn't meant to be an attack on you. I just like to keep track of who "ultimate authorities" here are. I even wrote a script for myself that highlights known native speakers' names so I can see which posts get automatic credibility. I'm asking because I've been trying to tell for sure if you are or not for quite some time. Regardless, your Japanese is very good—I can tell that much. I just can't tell if it's native, and occasionally there's been something that makes me wonder.
