Singular and Plural Nouns
Belajar membedakan kata benda
tunggal dan jamak dan penggunaan a/an
What is Singular and Plural?
Singular = satu orang atau satu benda (one person or one thing)
Plural = lebih dari satu orang atau benda (more than one person or
thing)
?????? Singular → ?????? Plural
Example:
●a book → two books
●a student → students
Articles “A” and “An”
Kita gunakan a atau an hanya untuk singular nouns (kata benda tunggal).
Article Use Before Example Arti
a consonant sound a cat, a book, a car
seekor kucing, sebuah buku, sebuah
mobil
an vowel sound (a, e, i, o, u)
an apple, an egg, an
umbrella
sebuah apel, sebutir telur, sebuah
payung
Tips
●a university (karena bunyinya “you”)
●an hour (karena bunyinya “our”)
2⃣ Add -es (kalau berakhir
dengan -ch, -sh, -s, -ss, -x, -o)
bus → buses
box → boxes
tomato → tomatoes
3⃣ Change -y to -ies (jika
sebelum -y ada
konsonan)
baby → babies
city → cities
Remember:
Jika sebelum -y ada vokal → hanya tambah -s
➡ boy → boys
It and They
●It —> Kata tunjuk benda tunggal (singular)
Rumus: It + is + (a/an) + noun singular
Example: It is a class
●They —> Kata tunjuk benda jamak (plural)
Rumus: They + are + noun plural
Example: They are my keys
