What is a noun?

A noun is a word used to name people, places, animals, objects, and ideas. 

For example: 

The word “girl” is a noun because it names a person.

The word “dog” is a noun because it names an animal.

The word “school” is a noun because it names a place.

There are many types of nouns. For today’s lesson, let’s focus on singular and plural nouns.

Singular nouns are words used to name a single person, place, animal, or object.

For Example

• There is a little girl in front of our house. (Single person)
• That is my brother. (Single person)
• I found a wounded dog in the park. (Single dog)
• I bought a pink bag last week. (Single object)

Another type of noun that we are going to focus on in today’s lesson is the plural noun.

4. Plural nouns: Plural nouns refer to several people, places, animals, or things.

The plural form of a noun is made by adding an ‘s’ or ‘es’ or ‘ies’ or ‘ves’ to

the existing root word. Nouns that end with an ‘s’ remain the same.

For example:

I want to buy more pencils.

She has three sisters.

There are many apples on the table.

I like foxes.

As mentioned earlier, nouns are made plural by adding an ‘s’ or ‘es’ or ‘ies’ or ‘ves’ to the existing root word.
