What is "plural form"?
Plural form is a grammatical category that indicates that a noun, pronoun, or verb refers to more than one person, animal, thing, or concept. In English, plural nouns are often formed by adding "s" or "es" to the singular form. For example, the singular noun "cat" becomes "cats," and "box" becomes "boxes." Plural forms can also change entirely, as seen with the singular noun "child," which becomes "children." In addition to nouns, pronouns also have plural forms, such as "I" changing to "we" and "he" or "she" changing to "they." Understanding plural form is important for ensuring grammatical accuracy and clarity in communication.
