English
usually forms the plural by adding an "s" to
the singular noun. Sometimes,
though, the plural looks like a completely different word:
| This
is a child.
(singular) |
| And
these are children.
(plural) |
| There
is a man.
(singular) |
| There
are some men.
(plural) |
There
arent that many words in English that form the plural this
way. Its much more common to form the plural by adding "s."
