What is a sound plural?

What is a sound plural? Here are some definitions.

Noun
  1. (grammar) In the Semitic languages, a regular plural formed by adding a suffix, without changes to the stem. An example in Arabic is مُسْلِمُونَ‎ (muslimūna, “Muslims”), the plural form of مُسْلِمٌ‎ (muslimun, “a Muslim”), formed by adding the suffix ـُونَ‎ (-ūna), and مُسْلِمَاتٌ‎ (muslimātun, “Muslim women”), formed by adding the suffix ـَاتٌ‎ (-ātun). This contrasts with broken plurals, which involve changes to the stem (the addition or removal of letters).
