Card 1Singular Nouns

What is a singular noun?

Answer

A singular noun is a word that stands for only one person, animal, place, or thing. For example: 'cat' means one cat. We use singular nouns when we talk about just one of something.

Card 2Plural Nouns

What is a plural noun?

Answer

A plural noun is a word that stands for more than one person, animal, place, or thing. For example: 'cats' means two or more cats. We usually add -s or -es to make a noun plural.

Card 3Singular and Plural Forms

Give an example of a singular noun and its plural form.

Answer

Singular: 'dog' → Plural: 'dogs'. We add -s to 'dog' to show there is more than one dog.

Card 4Forming Plural Nouns

How do we usually change a singular noun to plural?

Answer

We usually add -s to the end of a singular noun to make it plural. For example: 'book' becomes 'books', 'chair' becomes 'chairs'.

Card 5Plural Noun Rules

When do we add -es instead of -s to make a plural noun?

Answer

We add -es when the noun ends in -s, -sh, -ch, -x, or -z. For example: 'bus' becomes 'buses', 'watch' becomes 'watches'.

Card 6Spelling Rules for Plurals

Why do we say 'buses' and not 'buss'?

Answer

Because when a noun ends in -s like 'bus', we add -es to make it plural. So, 'bus' becomes 'buses'. Adding just -s would make it hard to say and spell.

Card 7Plural Noun Examples

What is the plural of 'tree'?

Answer

The plural of 'tree' is 'trees'. We add -s to 'tree' because it does not end in -s, -sh, -ch, -x, or -z.

Card 8Irregular Plural Nouns

Is 'child' a singular or plural noun?

Answer

'Child' is a singular noun. It means one child. The plural of 'child' is 'children', which is an irregular plural form.
