including the suffix -ies is a ability to make nouns plural. The notice "happy" is an adjective which won't be in a position to be switched over to a noun in that style. One occasion of an adjective which could exchange right into a noun is "high quality" into "niceities." The noun of "happy" is "happiness."

The accepted plural for human is humans. Humanity can also be used if placed appropriately.

Because it ends in a consonent in the singular form and, since it's english, you just add the "s" to make it plural.... rules of speech win out... sorry.!

"Man" and "human" come from different word sources.

Human comes from "humaine" (Middle English), which is akin to "homo" (man) or "humanus" (Latin)

Man is from Middle English as well, but just as "man" or "mann".
