Singular noun And Plural Noun - Class 2 English Grammar

When there is only one of naming word (noun), it is said to be a singular noun.

When a noun shows more than one, it is said to be in the plural.

We can add –S, -es, -ves or ies to show that there is more than one noun. For example, we say many birds, four biscuits, six brushes.

1. Noun ending with –s, -x, -o, -sh, -ch, and –ss form plurals by taking –es.

Look at these pairs of words:

Bus – Buses

Brush – Brushes

Box – Boxes

Church – Churches

Class – Classes

Potato – Potatoes

2. Now, look at these pairs of words.

Wife, thief, life. These words do not form the plurals by adding –s or –es.

Examples:-

Wolf – Wolves

Knife – Knives

Scarf – Scarves

Loaf – Loaves

Thief – Thieves.

The f or fe at the end has changed to -ves.

3. A noun ending with –y becomes plural by replacing the -Y with –ies.

Example

Family – Families

Lily – Lilies

Cherry – Cherries

Candy – Candies

Lady – Ladies

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne...

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name Noble Gases Noble gases, sometimes known as inert gases or erosions, are part of the modern periodic table's 18th group. This group is made up of the following individuals: Helium is a kind of gas (He) Neon (Ne) Argon is a gas (Ar) Krypton (Kr) Xenon is a kind of xenon gas (Xe) Radon is a gas that can cause cancer (Rn) Noble gases exist in a gaseous state under typical temperature and pressure conditions. Because all noble gases have stable electronic structures, they have very little chemical reactivity. They are monoatomic gases that do not readily form molecules. 'ns2np6' represents the basic electrical configuration of noble gases. As a result, noble gases' outermost valence shells can be deemed 'complete.' The chemical inertness of the group of 18 elements is due to this. Because of the stability of certain elements, these gases form a group. These stable elements' crusts are totally filled.
