14 TOPIC : Singular and Plural Nouns Count Nouns: Most nouns name something you can count; for example, if you buy a bag of peanuts, you can count each peanut in the bag--one peanut, two peanuts, three peanuts, and so on. We call nouns like peanut count nouns, and usually we add an -s ending to show more than one. Singular count nouns refer to one person or thing while plural count nouns refer to more than one person or thing. We have several ways of making count nouns plural. Some Rules for Forming Plurals: (1) To make a count noun plural, you can often just add an -s ending: a) Book- books c) horse- horses b) Movie- movies d) student- students (2) Most count nouns ending in o, s, sh, ch, and x add -es to form plurals: a) Potato-potatoes c) Church- churches b) Class- classes d) Dish-dishes (3) Many count nouns ending in a consonant followed by y change the y to i and add -es to form plurals: a) company companies c) library libraries b) baby babies d) family families (4) Many count nouns ending in a vowel followed by y add s to form plurals: a) Boy-boys

15 (5) Still other count nouns change form rather than just the ending: a) Man- men c) woman women b) child children d) wife wives Exercise 1 Q. Complete the following sentences, making any underlined singular nouns plural. Notice that modifiers like many, most, and two, signal the plural form of count nouns.
