"־ס" meaning in Yiddish

See ־ס in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Suffix

Forms: -s [romanization]
Etymology: Middle High German did not have an s-plural. The Yiddish form probably comes from a confluence of two origins: The use after unstressed -e corresponds to Hebrew ־ות (-ôṯ), which is pronounced [əs] in Yiddish (and Ashkenazi Hebrew). The use after unstressed sonorants is very similar to Middle Low German and likely influenced by it. Compare German -s (also from Middle Low German), English -s (inherited).
