About this test list: -es plurals

Understanding how nouns change when moving from singular to plural form is a fundamental aspect of English grammar. Plurals indicate that there is more than one of a noun.

When a word ends in ch, s, sh, x, or z, you can turn it into a plural by adding the letters -es.

For example:

arch becomes two arches

one dress becomes two dresses

one brush becomes two brushes

one box becomes two boxes

one waltz becomes two waltzes

While this rule may seem confusing at first, our spelling activities will have you confidently forming plurals in no time. Saying each word aloud will help you embed its spelling into your memory.
