Los clubes

Hi
Is there any specific rule in Spanish for pluralising words which come directly from English? e.g. un club - unos clubes
Thanks.

La pluralización viene marcada casi exclusivamente por la terminación. Si la palabra acaba en ciertas consonantes (como "b"), se agrega "-es". Si ya lleva una "s" final, no se añade nada: virus - virus.

A veces hay dualidades, por ejemplo, cuando termina en "í" (carmesí) puede pluralizarse como "carmesís" o "carmesíes" (recomendado).

No es un tema sencillo, en el sentido de que existen demasiados casos posibles. Para mayor información, consulte el DPD (Diccionario Panhispánico de Dudas): http://lema.rae.es/dpd/
