Singular and Plural Nouns
Singular nouns name one person, place, thing, or idea.
Plural nouns name more than one person, place, thing, or idea.
To form the plural of some nouns you must add –s.
Words that end in –ch,x, s, or s sounds will form their plural by adding es.
if your noun ends in y, you must change the y for an i and add –es.
irregular nouns are the ones that don’t follow the rules when they are pluralized. Some irregular nouns change their spelling completely.
other irregular nouns have the same spelling for both their singular and plural forms.
