Really Useful List of 100 Irregular Plural Nouns in English
You’ve got one tomato and I’ve got two tomatos. Right? Wrong! I’ve got two tomatoes!
Although we usually add an -s to a noun to make it plural (one egg, two eggs, etc.), some nouns in English have irregular plural endings. We’ve put together a really useful list in alphabetical order of some common nouns which have irregular plural endings.
Fun ways of using this resource:
* Create a spelling bee game. The teacher gives you the single version of the noun and you need to spell out the plural version.
* Use the words for fun hangman games
* Quick fire tests – your teacher gives you the starting word. If you get it right you give the next. If you get it right you remain standing. If you get it wrong, you sit down.
