Unit-14

One and many

Learning objective : Students will learn all the rules of

changing from singular to plural(adding 'es', 'ies', 'ves').

Explanation:

 Singular nouns refer to just one person, place, animal or thing.

Example- boy, pen, mango, wolf, baby

 Plural nouns refer to two or more persons, places, animals or

things.

Example- boys, pens, mangoes, wolves, babies

 Every naming word is either one or more than one. In order to

differentiate between one and many, we follow the singular

plural rules for different words.

 Some words change completely from one to many

Ex: foot – feet

tooth- teeth

person- people

child- children

mouse- mice

woman- women
