According to https://wiki.dothraki.org/High_Valyrian_Vocabulary , the word mentys exclusively means "soldier", whereas azantys means "knight, soldier, warrior, swordsman, swordswoman" from azandy "short sword"
The paucal form is used for a quantity between 3-10 in other languages: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammatical_number#Paucal - as I see it, the paucal form means "some knights"
Maybe the table for 2sol. can shed some light on this subject? https://wiki.dothraki.org/High_Valyrian_Noun_Declensions#Solar-type:_loktys
I was quite confused by how "Rōva" conjugates, so I looked it up on the wiki and found it conjugates like this:
Large/Big (Lunar):
-
Nominative: Rōvys/Rōvyz - Exact same for both singular and plural. The form is Rōvyz before a vowel, h, or a voiced consonant: k, p, s, or t.
-
Accusative: Rōvi (singular), Rōvī (plural).
At least it's according to this table: https://wiki.dothraki.org/High_Valyrian_Adjectives#Class_I
