The simplest example comes from \(\RR^{2n}\), which we give the coordinates \((q_i, p_i)\). In these local coordinates, we can define a symplectic form by \[\omega_{std}=\sum_{i=1}^n d p_i\wedge d q_i.\] Note that when \(n=1\), this gives the standard area form on \(\RR^2\). In these coordinates, it is easy to check that \(\frac{\omega_{std}^n}{n!}=\text{vol}_{\RR^{2n}}\), the standard volume form.
