WHAT are irregular plural nouns?
IRREGULAR plural nouns are irregular nouns in the plural form. An irregular noun is a noun that becomes plural by changing its spelling in other than adding an «s» or «es» to the end of the word. This change can happen in a variety (гуногун) of ways.
EXAMPLES OF IRREGULAR PLURAL NOUNS
Some irregular nouns take on the plural form by first changing the last letter of the word before adding «s». Words that end in «f» are a good example of this case. To make such a word plural, you change the «f» to «ve» and add an «s».
*more than one calf=calves
*more than one knife=knives
*more than one loaf=loaves
Irregular nouns made plural by changing vowels, changing the word, or adding a different ending;
*more than one man=men
*more than one person=people
*more than one child=children
Plural and singular
Nouns can be singular or plural. The plural form of a noun is usually formed by adding s at the end of the noun. But this is not always the case. There are exceptions to the rule. Some plurals are irregular:
Singular. Plural
Fish. Fish
Tooth. Teeth
Man. Men
Woman. Women
