By default it will append \glspluralsuffix to the value of the name
field.  \glspluralsuffix defaults to 's' for English. If your language
forms most plurals by appending a different string, let me know and I
can add that definition to the language-specific code.  If your
language uses a different mechanism for plurals, you can use the
plural field:

  \newglossaryentry{goose}{name={goose},plural={geese},description={a
bird that supplies quills for writing}}

  \gls{goose}% types 'goose'
  \glspl{goose}% types 'geese'
