Can you give examples of plural nouns that don't change?

Do all nouns ending in -s or -es form plural nouns?

What is the difference between plural and possessive nouns?

Plural nouns are used to indicate more than one person, place, thing, or idea, while possessive nouns show ownership or relationship. Plural nouns typically add "-s" or "-es" to the base word to indicate more than one item, whereas possessive nouns add apostrophe + "s" to show that something belongs to someone or something else.

Can you explain the concept of collective nouns and their plural forms?

Collective nouns refer to a single group or entity made up of multiple individuals or things. Examples include "team," "audience," and "family." When referring to the group as a whole, we use a singular verb form (e.g., "The team is working hard"). However, when individual members of the group are being highlighted, we use plural forms (e.g., "The team are all wearing different jerseys"). In terms of creating the plural form of collective nouns, it typically involves adding the plural marker to the base form of the noun, such as adding "-s" or "-es" depending on the spelling.

How do you use plural nouns correctly in sentences?

To use plural nouns correctly in sentences, ensure that the verb, pronouns, and other elements in the sentence agree with the plural form of the noun. For example, if the plural noun is "dogs," use verbs and pronouns that also reflect the plural, such as "are" instead of "is" and "they" instead of "it." Additionally, pay attention to any modifiers or articles that precede the plural noun and make sure they are also in the plural form. Practice and consistency are key in mastering the correct usage of plural nouns in sentences.
