The task is to write the plural form of the given nouns. Here's how to solve it step by step:
Rules for Forming Plurals:
1.
Add -s: Most nouns form their plural by adding
-s.
- Example: glass → glasses
2.
Add -es: Nouns ending in
s, sh, ch, x, z usually add
-es.
- Example: bus → buses
3.
Change the vowel or spelling: Some nouns have irregular plural forms where the vowel changes or the spelling changes.
- Example: foot → feet
4.
No change: A few nouns remain the same in both singular and plural forms.
- Example: deer → deer
Solution:
Let's go through each noun and determine its plural form:
1.
glass
- Rule: Add -es (ends with s).
- Plural:
glasses
2.
bus
- Rule: Add -es (ends with s).
- Plural:
buses
3.
pants
- Rule: No change (already plural).
- Plural:
pants
4.
scarf
- Rule: Add -s.
- Plural:
scarves (Note: "scarves" is an irregular plural form.)
5.
foot
- Rule: Change the vowel (irregular plural).
- Plural:
feet
6.
dress
- Rule: Add -es (ends with s).
- Plural:
dresses
7.
suit
- Rule: Add -s.
- Plural:

Final Answer:
| Singular | Plural |
|----------|--------|
| glass | glasses |
| bus | buses |
| pants | pants |
| scarf | scarves |
| foot | feet |
| dress | dresses |
| suit | suits |
Explanation:
- For most nouns, simply adding
-s or
-es works.
- Irregular plurals like "scarves" and "feet" require memorization.
- Nouns like "pants" are already plural and do not change.
This completes the task! 😊
