πŸ“– Quick Study Guide: Regular vs. Irregular Plural Nouns

  • πŸ’‘ Regular Plural Nouns: Most nouns become plural by simply adding -s or -es to the end.
  • ✏️ Adding -s: Use for most nouns (e.g., cat β†’ cats, book β†’ books).
  • πŸ“ Adding -es: Use for nouns ending in -s, -ss, -sh, -ch, -x, or -z (e.g., bus β†’ buses, box β†’ boxes, watch β†’ watches).
  • 🧠 Irregular Plural Nouns: These nouns do NOT follow the -s or -es rule. They change their spelling in unique ways, or sometimes don't change at all!
  • 🌟 Common Irregular Examples: child β†’ children, man β†’ men, foot β†’ feet, mouse β†’ mice, tooth β†’ teeth, goose β†’ geese, person β†’ people, sheep β†’ sheep, fish β†’ fish.
  • βœ… Practice is Key: The best way to learn irregular plurals is to memorize them and practice using them often!
