Plurals - English Grammar for Kids.
A noun names an 🔦 object, 🧍person or 🏨 place.
When a noun is singular1️⃣, it means there is 1️⃣ one of them. When a noun is plural2️⃣, it means there is more than one2️⃣.

To make most nouns plural we simply ➕ add -s.
For example,
⭐ cat = catS
⭐ dog = dogS
⭐ ring= ringS
Some nouns do not ❌ follow this rule.
1. If a noun ends in a 'y', to make the noun plural, the 'y' is removed ❎and '-ies' is➕ added:
2. If a noun ends🔚 in 'f' or 'fe', to make the noun plural the 'f' or 'fe' becomes 'ves': ⭐ calf🐄 = calves 🐄🐄
⭐ knife🔪 = knives🔪🔪 3. If a noun ends in s / ss / ch / sh / x then we add '-es' when we make it plural: ⭐ bus🚌 = buses🚌🚌
A useful 💡 way to remember this is that if the word "hisses"🐍 or "buzzes"🐝, the plural has an -es on the end.
