The letter “y” at the end of a Word often determines how the plural is formed:
If “y” follows a consonant → change y to ies.
Example: proxy → proxies, party → parties.
If “y” follows a vowel → simply add s.
Example: key → keys, toy → toys.
Would you like me to also explain why “proxy” becomes “proxies” specifically?
