Nouns: Singular, Plural & Possessive

Most nouns add -s for the plural, but some are irregular (child → children, person → people). Countable nouns can be counted (one apple, two apples); uncountable nouns cannot (water, not "a water"). Add 's to a noun to show possession.

Examples

• I have two children and one dog.
• There is a lot of water in the bottle.
• This is Sarah's book.
• London is a big city. It is in England.
• The women are talking to the teacher.
