Boy, Girl, Shoe, Phone, Guitar, Life...
these are singular nouns
of course when they are singular nouns they are calculated in terms of the number... ONE, a.k.a. Numero Uno
so like....
the singularity can be a curse and a cure altogether.....
when it's a singular noun, things are easy to count, it's simpler and much less complicated...
when it's a singular noun, it retains it's original sound and spelling..
unlike the singular noun, a plural noun is harder....
e.g. words ending with '-f' or '-fe' normally becomes '-ves' as it turns into a plural.. or singular '-y' will become '-ies' when it is plural...
things certainly can get a little confusing n complicated for those who lack the experience...
some sad sad nouns are always meant to be left as a singular noun. for example, Gold, Silver, Sugar, Copper.... these are normally the better things in life isn't it? especially GOLD!!
other than being eternally single, there are other nouns which have irregular plurals... these words do not end with an '-s'... rather, the word itself changes..
for example, a plural for man is men... a plural for ox is oxen... a plural for die is dice....( bet lots of u didn't know that)
so anyways....
that's all for today...
this concludes the episode of Singular Noun.
join me next time as we venture deeper into the world of Plurals.
