Abstract

This article analyzes the grammatical and pragmatic aspects of plural nouns in English. It examines the rules for forming plural nouns, agreement with verbs and tenses, exceptions, and practical exercises for learners.

Each noun has specific rules for forming its plural, and they play a significant role in verb agreement.
