Hello, friends! I am SuperLexia, your superhero for spelling and grammar. I love helping everyone use language correctly. Let’s learn together and make spelling and grammar mistakes disappear!
Today, we’re going to learn about something special called irregular plural nouns. Usually, when we have more than one of something, we add “s,” “es,” or “ies” to the word. But some words are different! These are called irregular plural nouns. Let’s find out more about them.
Here are some examples:
Did you know some words don’t change at all? For example, “sheep” is the same whether there’s one or many. The same goes for “deer” and “moose.” Isn’t that interesting?
Some words that end in “f” or “fe” change to “ves” when they become plural. Here are some examples:
Irregular plural nouns can be tricky, but don’t worry! The best way to remember them is to practice and read them out loud. Soon, you’ll be a pro at using them!

Irregular Plural Noun Hunt: Go on a noun hunt around your house or classroom! Find objects and write down their names. Then, try to think of their plural forms. Are they regular or irregular? For example, if you find a “toothbrush,” think about the word “tooth” and its plural form “teeth.” Share your findings with a friend or family member.
Story Time with Irregular Plurals: Create a short story using as many irregular plural nouns as you can. You can start with a sentence like, “Once upon a time, there were three mice who found some old teeth in a cave.” Illustrate your story with drawings and share it with the class or your family.
Memory Match Game: Make a set of cards with singular nouns on one set and their irregular plural forms on another. Mix them up and place them face down. Take turns flipping two cards at a time, trying to find matches. When you find a match, say the singular and plural forms out loud. This will help you remember them better!
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

Hello, citizens! I am SuperLexia, the guardian of spelling and grammar. I help make language excellent by following the rules. Let’s defeat spelling and grammar mistakes with the power of clear and impactful expression.
Today, we’re going to talk about irregular plural nouns. Have you ever noticed that some nouns don’t follow the usual rules when they become plural? These are called irregular plural nouns. Let’s discover some of the most common ones.
One child becomes many children. It’s not like the usual “s,” “es,” or “ies” endings we see with most nouns. One person becomes many people. Here, the word changes completely. One man turns into many men; instead of adding “s” to make it plural, we change the “a” to an “e.” One woman becomes many women, which is similar to “man.”
Let’s look at some more irregular plural nouns:
– Mouse becomes mice.
– Tooth turns into teeth.
– Foot turns into feet.
Did you know that some nouns are the same in singular and plural? For example, “sheep” stays the same in both forms. Yes, we say one sheep and many sheep. “Deer” and “moose” also stay the same in singular and plural.
Speaking of animals, “wolf” becomes “wolves” in the plural form. In fact, a lot of nouns that end in “f” or “fe” drop them and add “ves” to become plural. For example:
– Leaf becomes leaves.
– Thief becomes thieves.
– Knife becomes knives.
– Life becomes lives.
Irregular plural nouns can be a little tricky, but never fear! The best way to remember them is to learn them by heart and read aloud. Then you’ll be a plural noun expert in no time.
