A noun without any word can also be plural: लइका खेलत बाड़ें means the children are playing. The plural verb बाड़ें shows it.

लोग is respectful, so it fits grown-ups: मास्टर लोग. सब is the one for all of them, and it fits things: बर्तन सब.

Before a postposition the plural may take -न: लइकन के. That is a separate lesson.
