Children seem to be aware of the existence of the inherently plural forms, however, for they use them as well, though usually with the suffix {-mey} superfluously appended: {chamey} (torpedoeses), {ngopmey} (plateses). So, as I understand this - and someone correct me if I'm wrong - it isn't grammatically wrong to add a plural suffix, to an inherently plural noun; it is just that the resulting word/meaning is strange/awkward.
It is grammatically wrong. /Plateses/ and /torpedoeses/ are grammatically wrong. They're awkward because it's grammatically wrong. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
