Q 1. Write the plural form of the singular word given below.

We need to convert each singular noun into its plural form. Here are the rules we'll use:

- Most nouns add -s.
- Nouns ending in -s, -sh, -ch, -x, -z add -es.
- Nouns ending in -y (preceded by a consonant) change -y to -ies.
- Some nouns have irregular plurals (e.g., tooth → teeth).

Now, let’s go through each word:

---

1) lamp → lamps
(Regular plural: add -s)

2) teacher → teachers
(Add -s)

3) plant → plants
(Add -s)

4) table → tables
(Add -s)

5) phone → phones
(Add -s)

6) tooth → teeth
(Irregular plural: tooth → teeth)

7) spoon → spoons
(Add -s)

8) shoe → shoes

📝 Explanation:

- Most words follow the regular rule: add -s.
- Tooth is an exception: it changes to teeth (irregular).
- Words like shoe, book, and car follow the standard pattern.
- Toy ends in -y, but since it's preceded by a vowel ('o'), we add -s, not -ies.

This exercise helps build understanding of English pluralization rules.
