The ending of Дом in plural

Asked by Roger on March 13, 2018

Question

Hello.

Дом is masculine in Russian, so in plural it must be домы, but what I see is дома. Is the any rule that I'm missing?

Answer

Hi! Дом is an exception. There are some other exceptions that end in -a in Nominative plural.
