🔍 Explanation:
- A
noun is a person, place, thing, or idea. In these sentences, we’re looking for things like *apple*, *movie*, *plate*, etc.
- To make most nouns plural, we add
-s or
-es (e.g., *apple → apples*, *movie → movies*).
- Some nouns have irregular plurals, but all here follow regular rules.
- Compound nouns like *candy bar* become plural by adding
-s to the main noun: *candy bars* (not *candies bar*).
