A noun names a person, a place, a thing, or an idea. The word “plural” means more than one, so a plural noun names two or more persons, places, things, or ideas.
Usually, a plural is made by adding an -s to the noun.
dog – dogs
boat – boats
truck – trucks
lamp – lamps
Add –es to nouns ending in s, x, z, ch, and sh
box – boxes
grass – grasses
church – churches
bush – bushes
Add -s or -es to most nouns to make them plural.
