In Tibetan, for instance, nga-s mi mthong "I-by man see, by me a man is seen, I see a man" may just as well be understood to mean "I see men," if there happens to be no reason to emphasize the fact of plurality.
If the fact is worth expressing, however, I can say nga-s mi rnams mthong "by me man plural see," where rnams is the perfect conceptual analogue of -s in books, divested of all relational strings. No need to bother about his plurality any more than about his whiteness unless we insist on the point. What is true of the idea of plurality is naturally just as true of a great many other concepts.
