There are two rules for making the plural of words
that end in ‘- y’.

1. If the word ends with a vowel before the ‘- y’,
you add an ‘- s’ to make the plural.

For example:

day = days (vowel ‘a’ before ‘y’)

There are 5 vowels in the alphabet: a, e, i, o, u
There are 21 consonants: b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k, l, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, w, x, y, z


2. If a word ends with a consonant before the ‘- y’,
the ‘y’ changes to ‘ie’ before adding an ‘s’ to make the plural.

For example:

penny = pennies (consonant ‘n’ before ‘y’)
Moral of story: HONKY = HONKIES

Now this thread is educational.
