What is the plural form of "Happy"?

This was narrated to me by my daughter who's employer belongs to a group of Norwegians who provide financial assistance not only to indigents but to government or public institutions as well.

A public elementary school teacher was trying to impress this group who came to observe her class one day.

School teacher: "Class, today we shall study the plural form of nouns that end in Y."

School children: "Yes, ma'am."

School teacher: "We change Y and replace them with ies. Is that clear?"

School children: "Yes, ma'am."

School teacher: "What is the plural form of Company?"

School children: "Companies!"

School teacher: "Very good! How about Goody?"

School children: "Goodies!"

School teacher: "Very good again. What about Happy?"

School children: "Happies!"

Ngek!

LOL. As the answerers were saying, happy is not a noun but an adjective and therefore cannot be pluralized.

The adjective happy has comparative and superlative forms. The rule is the same to the rule that you outlined in your post. We just change the -y to an i and add -er or -est.

Example:
pretty becomes prettier / prettiest

The teacher should know better than to have the students pluralize the word. He he!

Happy is not a noun so it can't be plural

Wasn't one of the 7 dwarfs in Snow White called Happy? (maybe not) but if there were 2 of them, they'd be Happies ☺.

Everybody has missed the point. You are not asking what the plural of happy is, you are making a point about the teacher!!

Any teacher who does not know happy is an adjective and therefore cannot be pluraled, needs a new line of work.

Adding the suffix -ies is a method to make nouns plural. The word "happy" is an adjective which cannot be converted to a noun in that fashion. One example of an adjective that can become a noun is "nice" into "niceities." The noun of "happy" is "happiness."

there is no plural form of "happy"...

Happy has no plural by itself.
But can be 'used' as a plural when describing another word i.e. Many happy returns

Happy is an adjective. So, it will be "very happy".

There's not a plural form of "happy". There's just "happiest" and "happier".

Happy is not a noun. It's usually an adjective but might be a verb.

Happiness is a noun, but there's no "Y."

All forms of "happy" are either adjectives or adverbs. It has to be a noun in order to have a plural form. Happy is not a "thing". It describes a "thing"

hahaha ngek ngek indeed! Happy is an adjective, not a noun and therefore cannot be pluralized. But purely for exercise purposes, I will agree with the schoolchildren - happies it is!!!

So, Annabelle, have you had your happies yet? hahaha

Plural : We are happy, or

They are happy

Hope that you and your loved ones are all happy (that is plural because there are a lot of you who are happy). Ngek!


inaka!
its not a noun, its and adj so you never put s on it.


Bad Co.
They were all happy.
There are three happy faces.
As above they are one and the same.


ohm'slaw
word is the same singular and plural
