Answer
:
Add ‘s’ for making the Plural of
Singular
noun
.
"
the
general
rule"
.
IF a word end
s
at alphabet ‘o’ then we will add ‘es’ to make their plural form.
If a noun ends at these alphabets
(x,z,s,ss,sh,ch)
, then add ‘es’ to make their plurals.
If a Word ends with the alphabet ‘y’ and there is a consonant before ‘y’ then replace ‘y’ with ‘ies’
.
If a word ends with the alphabet ‘y’ and there is a ‘Vowel’ before ‘y’ then use add ‘s’ to make the plural of that word.
If a word ends with ‘f’ or ‘fe’ then replace them with ‘ves’ to make plurals.
Do not apply
the
previous
rule to these
words
;
[
Chef
,
Chefs
/
Cliff
,
Cliffs
/
Roof
,
Roofs
/
Handkerchief
,
Handkerchiefs
/
belief
,
beliefs
.
.
.
,
etc
.
]
To make Plural of these nouns just change their vowels
;
[
Woman
,
Women
/
Foot
,
Feet
/
Tooth
,
Teeth
/
Mouse
,
Mice
/
Goose
,
Geese
/
Louse
,
Lice
]
.
These words are the same in Singular and Plural Form.
[
Sheep
,
deer
,
Fish
,
people
,
Hundred
,
Thousand
,
Swine
,
Aircraft
,
Offspring
,
Dozen
,
Score
,
million
,
Billion
]
.
There
are
irregular
plural
nouns
like
"
children
"
from
the
singular
noun
"
child"
,
"
men
,
man"
,
and
"
mice
,
mouse"
.
Hope
this
help
!
