๐ Plural Nouns: One and Many
In this lesson, you will learn how to talk about more than one thing. We will look at regular and irregular plural nouns.
Regular Plurals: Add -s
Most English words are regular. When you have two or more of something, you just add an 's' to the end of the word. For example, one cat becomes two cats. This is the easiest way to make a word plural, and you will use it every day when you speak and write in English.
Words Ending in -ch, -sh, -s, -x
Some words end with special sounds like ch, sh, s, or x. You cannot just add an 's' to these words. Instead, you must add '-es' to the end so it is easy to say. For example, one box becomes two boxes, and one bus becomes two buses.
Irregular Plurals
Some common English words do not follow the rules. They change their spelling completely when they become plural! For example, one child becomes two children, and one man becomes two men. You need to memorize these special words because people use them all the time.
