4. IRREGULAR NOUNS Irregular nouns are nouns do not follow the same rule of regular nouns or any standard rule when converting into plurals. For example, the irregular noun “child” changes into plural as “children.” It does not use any addition of “-s” or “- es ” at the end, like regular nouns. If the noun “thief” is taken as another example, it changes to the plural as “thieves.” Furthermore, nouns like “sheep” and “scissors” have the same formation, and these nouns can be either singular or plural. This means the plural form of “sheep” and “scissors” remains “sheep” and “scissors .” A major spelling change takes place in forming most irregular nouns into plural formation. Thus, the spellings of the irregular nouns change when there is a change in their number or quantity. REGULAR NOUNS VS IRREGULAR NOUNS REGULAR NOUNS Reg ural nouns indicate that there is more than one from that referred noun. Regular nouns are nouns that can be formed into their plural form by simply adding “-s” and “- es ” to the end. For example, the noun “flower” is singular, and it indicates one thing. This noun can be made plural by adding “s” at the end as “flowers,” giving the meaning “more flowers .” At the same time, nouns that end with - ss , -s, - sh , - ch , -z, -x, and -o are converted into plural formation by adding “- es .” For example, the noun “class” in the singular form can be converted into plural form by adding “- es ” at the end of the word, making it “classes.” Therefore, singular regular nouns are formed into plurals by adapting the general rule: adding “-s” and “- es ” at the end of the particular word. In other words, a major  spelli ng  change does not take place in regular nouns when converting the regular nouns into plurals.

6. POSSESSIVE NOUNS Possessive nouns are  nouns that show ownership or a direct connection. Typically, singular possessive nouns use an apostrophe ( ’ ) and the letter  s  at the end of the word to take the possessive form. Almost any noun can become possessive, even abstract nouns.

7. General Rules of Possessive Nouns Rule 1 To show possession of singular nouns, add ‘s e.g. Leaf – leaf’s Class – class’s Rule 2 To show possession of plural nouns not ending in s, add ‘s e.g. Women – women’s Children – children’s Rule 3 To show possession of plural nouns ending in s, add ‘ e.g. Leaves – leaves’ Classes – classes’

8. NOUNS AS MODIFIER A   noun modifier , also known as an attributive noun or noun adjunct, is a noun used attributively to modify or qualify another noun, but in a different way than an adjective.
