Let's solve this worksheet step by step. The task is to write the
plural form of each
singular noun listed.
---
🔹 Rules for Plural Nouns:
1. Most nouns add
-s → *cow → cows*
2. Nouns ending in
-s, -sh, -ch, -x, -z add
-es → *watch → watches*
3. Nouns ending in
-y (after a consonant) change
-y to
-ies → *child → children*
4. Some words have
irregular plurals that don’t follow standard rules:
- *sheep → sheep* (same in singular and plural)
- *goose → geese*
- *tooth → teeth*
- *child → children*

Now let’s go through each one:
| Singular | Plural |
|--------|--------|
| 1. cow |
cows |
| 2. goat |
goats |
| 3. potato |
potatoes |
| 4. sheep |
