Plurals

Study these rules:

·     

  A plural noun is MORE THAN ONE person, place, or thing.

·     To make most nouns plural, add an –s, -es, or –ies.

              Example: dogs, houses, cherries

·     Add an –es to nouns that end in -ch, -sh, -s, -ss, or -x.

              Example: churches, bushes,  buses, classes, boxes

·      

   When a noun ends in a consonant and –y, change the –y to an –i and add –es.

              Example: body becomes bodies
