Masculine Plural
This word is the plural form of the masculine noun 'el camión' (the truck). When referring to multiple trucks, you must use the masculine plural article 'los' (los camiones).
The Disappearing Accent Mark
When you make the singular noun 'camión' (with an accent on the 'o') plural, the stress shifts naturally, so the accent mark disappears. This happens with many nouns ending in -ón (e.g., 'canción' → 'canciones').
Accent Confusion
Mistake: “Escribir 'cámiónes' o 'camiónes'.”
Correction: The correct plural spelling is 'camiones' (no accent mark). The singular is 'camión'.
