Nouns and Verbs worksheet for language learning, with exercises on plural forms and verb identification.

Let’s go step by step.

---

Part 1: Write the plural forms of the nouns given below.

We need to change each singular noun into its plural form. Some follow regular rules (add -s or -es), and some are irregular.

Left column:

- Sandwich → ends in “ch”, so add -es → Sandwiches
- Child → irregular → Children
- Ox → irregular → Oxen
- Mouse → irregular → Mice
- Fish → usually stays the same in plural → Fish (can also be “fishes” for different species, but here it’s likely just “fish”)

Right column:

- Calf → ends in “f”, change to “v” and add “es” → Calves
- Toy → ends in vowel + y → just add -s → Toys
- Knife → ends in “fe”, change to “v” and add “es” → Knives
- Tomato → ends in “o”, often adds -es → Tomatoes
- Rabbit → regular → add -s → Rabbits

✔ All plurals checked.

Part 2: Underline the verb(s) in the sentences given below.

Verbs show action or state of being. Let’s find them in each sentence.

A. *Max went to school with many other children.*
→ “went” is the past tense of “go” → verb

B. *We enjoyed ourselves at the party.*
→ “enjoyed” is the past tense of “enjoy” → verb

C. *My family loves Chinese cuisine.*
→ “loves” is present tense of “love” → verb

D. *Susie and Olivia will participate in the dance competition.*
→ “will participate” — “will” is helper, “participate” is main verb → both together make the verb phrase → verbs: will participate

E. *The mice escaped the trap.*
→ “escaped” is past tense of “escape” → verb

F. *“Do not shout,” said the teacher.*
→ Two verbs here:
- “shout” is the action being told not to do → verb
- “said” is what the teacher did → verb
Also note: “Do” is part of the command (“Do not shout”) — it’s an auxiliary verb helping form the negative imperative. So technically, “do” and “shout” are both verbs in that clause. But since the instruction says “underline the verb(s)”, we should include all.

Wait — let’s clarify F carefully:

Sentence: *“Do not shout,” said the teacher.*

Breakdown:
- In the quote: “Do not shout” → “Do” (auxiliary verb) + “not” (adverb) + “shout” (main verb) → so two verbs: do, shout
- Outside the quote: “said” → verb

So total verbs in sentence F: do, shout, said

But sometimes in elementary level, they might only expect the main action verbs. However, since “do” is a helping verb and part of the verb phrase, and “said” is clearly a verb, we should include all three.

However, looking at typical grade-level expectations (this looks like upper elementary), they may consider:

- “shout” as the verb in the quoted command
- “said” as the reporting verb

And possibly ignore “do” because it’s auxiliary? But actually, “do” is still a verb.

To be safe and accurate, I’ll list all verbs present.

But let’s check standard curriculum: In most K–5 grammar, when asked to “underline the verb(s)”, they want the main action or linking verbs, including auxiliaries if they’re part of the verb phrase.

In “Do not shout”, “do” is an auxiliary verb used to form the negative imperative — so yes, it’s part of the verb structure.

Similarly, in D, “will participate” — “will” is auxiliary, “participate” is main — both are underlined as part of the verb phrase.

So consistency: underline all words that function as verbs, including auxiliaries.

Thus:

F: “Do”, “shout”, “said”

But wait — “not” is NOT a verb — it’s an adverb.

So final for F: do, shout, said

However, let me double-check common practice. Many worksheets at this level might only expect “shout” and “said” for F, treating “do” as part of the instruction rather than a separate verb. But grammatically, “do” is a verb.

Given that this is SplashLearn (a learning platform), and their materials usually align with standard grammar, I think they’d expect:

For F: “shout” and “said” — because “do” is often overlooked in imperatives at this level? Or maybe not.

Actually, let’s look at sentence A: “went” — one verb
B: “enjoyed” — one
C: “loves” — one
D: “will participate” — two words, but treated as one verb phrase? Or two verbs?

In many curricula, “will participate” is considered a single verb unit (modal + base verb). Similarly, “do not shout” — “do shout” is the verb phrase, with “not” inserted.

But the instruction says “underline the verb(s)” — plural allowed.

I think safest is to underline every word that is a verb, even auxiliaries.

But to match likely expected answer (since this is for a student), let’s see:

Standard answers for such worksheets:

A: went
B: enjoyed
C: loves
D: will participate (both words)
E: escaped
F: shout, said — and sometimes “do” is included.

Upon second thought, in imperative sentences like “Do not shout”, “do” is an auxiliary verb emphasizing the command. It is indeed a verb.

Example from grammar sources: In “Do your homework”, “do” is the verb.

So I will include it.

Final decision:

F: do, shout, said

But let’s write them as they appear in the sentence.

Now, compiling all:

Final Answer:

1. Plural Forms:

Sandwich → Sandwiches
Child → Children
Ox → Oxen
Mouse → Mice
Fish → Fish

Calf → Calves
Toy → Toys
Knife → Knives
Tomato → Tomatoes
Rabbit → Rabbits

2. Verbs to underline:

A: went
B: enjoyed
C: loves
D: will participate
E: escaped
F: do, shout, said

*(Note: For F, if your teacher expects only main verbs, you might underline only "shout" and "said", but grammatically "do" is also a verb. Check with your class rules if unsure.)*

But since the problem doesn’t specify, and to be accurate, I’ll go with full grammatical correctness.
