Another thing about noun is, it can be singular or plural.
Whether they name one person, place, thing, or idea or
More than one.
Did you understand?
Yes, Ma’am.
Now my question is, how to form a plural noun?
By adding (s) Ma’am.
Exactly! To form the plural of most nouns, simply
Add –s. while other plural nouns are formed in
Different ways. For nouns ending in (s, ch, x or z,
Add –es to form the plural.
And for most noun ending in y preceded by a con-
-sonant, change the y to i and add –es. While for
Most nouns ending in f or fe, change the f to v and
Add –es. Other nouns have irregular plurals (for
Example, man/men, child/children. Some nouns
do not change the form from singular to plural
(for example, sheep/sheep).

Proper noun, always remember that, is always
capitalized although it is in the middle of the
sentence. Okay?
Yes, Ma’am!
Okay, let us proceed to common noun.

Ownership, or the general relationship between two

Add an apostrophe and –s to form the possessive
of any singular noun, even one that already ends in s.
