DEVELOPMENT
Nouns
A noun is a word that names something: either a person, animal, place, or thing. They are
divided into singular and plural and these are the rules to form them.
Rule Examples
1.- Many English plural nouns can be formed cat- cats
by adding –s to the end.
teacher- teachers
school- schools
2.- If the noun ends in –s, -ss, -x, -ch or –sh, we tax- taxes Exeptions
add –es.
kiss- kisses house- houses
watch- watches tomato- tomatoes
3.- When the noun ends in consonant – y, we candy- candies Attention
change the y for i and add –es.
baby- babies toy- toys
city- cities ray- rays
4.- If the noun ends with -f or -fe, the f is often wife- wives
changed to -ve before adding the -s to form the wolf- wolves
plural version. knife- knives
36
It’s best to memorize these irregular plurals. fish- fish
tooth- teeth
I. Change the following nouns to plural if you are given a singular noun, or singular if are given a plural noun.
cat__________ child__________ muffin__________
boss___________ men__________ family__________
candy__________ kiss__________ lock__________
marker__________ box__________ church__________
tomatoes__________ toy__________ city__________
feet__________ play__________ dance_________
Countable nouns are nouns which can be counted, and can be used with a/an, the, some, any, a few,
many, or a number.
Example: Here is a cat. (Cat is singular and—obviously—countable).
Uncountable nouns are nouns that come in a state or quantity which is impossible to count; liquids
are uncountable, as are things that act like liquids (sand, air), also grains, spices and money. They
are always considered to be singular, and can be used with some, any, a little, and much.
Example: - How much is it? – It’s $20 dollars. (Money is an uncountable noun).
When we want to know the quantity or amount of something, we ask questions starting with How
much and How many.
37
HOW MUCH ...? - (Quantity) HOW MANY ...? - (Quantity)
(Price)
How much is used with uncountable How many is used when we want to
