There are five
rules to help us
make nouns
plural.
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
Rule #1
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
Rule #1: Most
nouns show more
than one by
adding the letter s
to the word.
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
EXAMPLES
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
pets
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
chips
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
Rule #2
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
Rule #2: If a noun
ends in s, x, z, sh,
or ch, add -es to
make it more than
one.
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
EXAMPLES
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
buses
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
boxes
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
buzzes
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
bushes
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
churches
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
Rule #3
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott

ends in y and it
comes after a
consonant,
change the y to i
and add -es.

Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
puppies
y
Copyright © 2011 Kelly Mott
cityies

vowel, just add s.
