To carry out this research, the researcher has collected one hundred and forty noun words from twenty-eight different categories and they were translated and changed in to plural form in Magar Kham lanuage by Magar Kham speakers. Twenty-men and twenty women were selected to translate and pluralize the words in Magar Kham from Dhime VDC ward no 7 Dhanarasi, as the population of the study.

The data obtained from them has been tabulated and analyzed using the simple statistical tools of percentage. On the basis of analysis and interpretation of data, findings and recommendations were presented here. In this research work, all most all respondents responded in every word they added the letter 'ra' in singular form of uncountable nouns to make them plural in Magar Kham language. No irregular form of pluralization process was found in the Magar Kham. Like in Nepali and English language, plural from of uncountable nouns was not found. Decreasing condition of Magar Kham speakers was found main problems in Magar Kham language during the study. Due to the cross cultureal environment and impact of Nepali language, the original vocabularies of Magar Kham are disappearing.
