Though Japanese has no number, that is - singular / plural, certain personal nouns have a plural form. Anata has a plural form anata-gata. Pronounced as if it is anatangata, with a nasal n in between.
Watashi (I) becomes watashi-tachi to refer to we.
Kimura-san-tachi is equivalent to Mr Kimura's family. More like 'The Kimura-s'.

'litterally?' I guess my pronunciation may have been a bit guttural. :-)

@avidreader100 Yes, a typographical mistake. "literally" I meant. :) Yet, it is a quite nice pronuniation! :)
