Singular and Plural Nouns

Mr Myidriss

Regular Nouns:

1) To form the plural we add s to the end of a countable noun.

We use the singular to talk about one thing.

I have a smart phone (one phone 📱).
I eat an apple (one apple 🍎 ).

We use the plural to talk about two things or more.

I have many smart phones (two 📱📱 or more).
I eat some apples (two 🍎🍎 or more).
