    • "Mwanamke" (woman, M-WA class singular) becomes "wanawake" (women, M-WA class plural).
    • The possessive concord "cha" (for KI-VI singular) becomes "vya" (for KI-VI plural). Therefore, "kiatu cha mwanamke" becomes "viatu vya wanawake".
    • A. Viatu vya wanawake (women's shoes)
    • B. Viatu vya mwanamke (a woman's shoes - still singular woman) The correct plural form is *Viatu vya wanawake
