This article examines the stylistic realizations, commonalities, and distinctive features of noun plural formation in Literary Eastern Armenian, German, and Russian from both structural and semantic perspectives. All three languages display a morphemic principle of plural formation, using regular and irregular plural markers, which may also be accompanied by stem restructuring, phonological alternations, and stress shifts. While Literary Eastern Armenian is characterized by a relatively uniform pattern of plural formation and a more homogeneous declensional paradigm, German and Russian demonstrate a more diverse pluralization system in terms of both morphemic marking and declensional patterns. The analysis shows that in all three languages the plural category sometimes functions not only as an expression of quantity but also as a means of distinguishing homonyms and as an indicator of semantic and stylistic nuances, conveying emotional intensification and temporal indeterminacy. These observations suggest that the plural category should be interpreted not merely as a simple grammatical feature but as a multilayered morphological and semantic system that, when realized differently across the languages under study, can serve as a stylistic device and a means of expanding lexical meaning.
