Notes on plurals:

Working out the plural ending of a noun in Russian is a bloody nightmare and is
largely comprised of a lot of guesswork as there are four different endings that 
a word can have in the plural form and there is no logical process for arriving
at the correct ending. In English it's easy - you just add an "s" to the end of
the word.

First though just a quick note on these words: "Noun" is a word which is an
object such as "table, book, boy, cat". The word "Plural" is the form that a
noun word takes when there are many of that object.

In Russian the ending of a noun word can change for plurals in one of the 
following ways:

1) Remove vowel from the end and append "ee".
2) Remove vowel from the end and append "off".
3) Append "a" (short 'a') to the end of the word.
4) Remove vowel from the end of the word.

If the quantity involved is 2,3 or 4 of the object then use "ee", and if 
there are many of the noun then use "off". This is not a perfect way to do
it but it the best bet when in doubt. Example:

1 chair  : 1 stuhl (1 стул)
3 chairs : 3 stuhlee (3 стули)
42 chairs: 42 stuhloff (42 стулов)
many chairs: mnoga stuhloff (много стулов)

Notes on cases:

There are six cases in the Russian language which means that nouns and
pronouns frequently get their endings slightly (or completely) changed 
depending on their position and use in the sentence.

For example when the noun is used in the "instrumental" case then I
think the ending of the noun changes to "oo" and when it is used in the
"dative" case then I think the ending changes to "ee". And one of the
cases changes the ending to "am". However I'm pretty much as confused as 
everyone else about which ending each word takes in each case. Still the 
Russians understand you no problem if you get the case wrong so don't waste 
too much time figuring this out to begin with.
