Words that end with a consonant+’f’ or ‘fe’, “ves” will be replaced in the
place of “f” or “fe” to make the word plural.
Example- wolf= wolves
knife= knives
Words that end with “sh”, “ch”, “o”, “s”, “ss” and “x”, “es” will be
added to make the word plural.
Example- bench – benches
bush – bushes
grass – grasses
box – boxes
bus – buses
mango – mangoes
Learning outcome: Students can change naming words from singular to
plural by adding ( 'es', 'ies' ,'ves').
