The singular form of 'wolves' is 'wolf'. Moving from singular to plural in English often involves adding an 's' or 'es' to the end of a word. However, some words, like 'wolf', undergo a spelling change instead. In this case, the 'f' changes to a 'v' before the 'es' is added, forming 'wolves'. This kind of modification is an example of irregular plurality, one of the charming complexities of English.
