Note
A regular plural of a noun that shares its spelling with a verb form: ending is also the present participle and gerund of end, but only the noun can take -s. The plural is common in grammar, where inflections come in sets, like the -s of dogs. The word also illustrates itself, since the -s that makes endings plural is exactly the kind of morpheme that grammatical meaning names.
