Singular And Plural Quiz For Grade 2 - Quiz

Quiz Preview

  • 2. 

    What is the plural of key? 

    • Keyies

    • Keys

    • Keis

    • Keies

    Correct Answer
    A. Keys
    Explanation
    The plural of "key" is "keys" because when forming the plural of most nouns in English, we add an "-s" at the end. In this case, "key" becomes "keys" to indicate more than one key.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    The plural of tomato is ______. 

    • Tomatoes

    • Tomatoies

    • Tomatos

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Tomatoes
    Explanation
    The plural form of "tomato" is "tomatoes." In English, when a noun ends in a vowel sound followed by the letter "o," we usually add "es" to form the plural. This is the case with "tomato" as well. The other options, "tomatoies" and "tomatos," are incorrect because they do not follow the standard rule for forming plurals. Therefore, the correct plural form of "tomato" is "tomatoes."

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    What is the plural form of cockroach? 

    • Cockroachs

    • Cockroaches

    • Cockrochies

    • Cockroahs

    Correct Answer
    A. Cockroaches
    Explanation
    The plural form of "cockroach" is "cockroaches." In English, when we want to indicate that there is more than one of something, we usually add an "s" to the end of the word. In this case, we must add an “-es” since the noun ends in a “ch”.  So,"cockroach" becomes "cockroaches" to show that there are multiple of these insects.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    The plural of the word 'butterfly' is ______. 

    • Butterflys

    • Butterflies

    • Butterflyes

    • Butterfles

    Correct Answer
    A. Butterflies
    Explanation
    The plural of the word "butterfly" is "butterflies" because when forming the plural of most nouns in English, we often change the “y” to “ie” if the y is preceded by a consonant. If the “y” is preceded by a vowel, like in “turkey” you would just add an -s at the end, making “turkeys”.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    What is the plural form of 'foot'? 

    • Feet

    • Foots

    • Feets

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Feet
    Explanation
    The plural form of 'foot' is 'feet'. This is because 'foot' is an exception in English grammar. The double vowel “oo” turns to “ee”, . therefore, 'foot' becomes 'feet' in its plural form.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    What is the plural of knife? 

    • Knifes

    • Knifs

    • Knives

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Knives
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "knives" because when forming the plural of "knife," the "f" is changed to "v" and the "e" is added. This is a common rule in English for nouns ending in "f" or "fe." However, there are a few exceptions to the rule, so watch out!

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

     Is the word “women” singular or plural?

    • Singular

    • Plural

    Correct Answer
    A. Plural
    Explanation
    The plural form of the word "Woman" is “women”. This is similar to the words man and men, in which the singular form is “man” and plural form is “men”. Plural tense is used to indicate more than one person or thing.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    What is the plural form of mosquito?

    • Mosquitoes

    • Mosquitos

    • Mosquities

    • Mosquitoses

    Correct Answer
    A. Mosquitoes
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "mosquitoes" because when forming the plural of "mosquito," the -o ending changes to -oes. This is a common rule in English for nouns ending in -o. Therefore, "mosquitoes" is the correct plural form.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    What's the plural of the word 'ox'?

    • Oxes

    • Oxen

    • Oxs

    • Oxies

    Correct Answer
    A. Oxen
    Explanation
    The plural of the word 'ox' is 'oxen'. This is an irregular plural form, as it does not follow the typical pattern of adding an 's' to the end of the word. Instead, the vowel 'o' is changed to 'e' and the 'x' remains the same.
