Define yourself...



If you are a teacher, future teacher, my friends who are going to be teachers or lecturers, you may apply the previous poem in your class...

If you are my closest friends, you'll know I like poem so much! haha

You may want to ask your students to read it first, and distribute the worksheet with blanks below...

Or if you are a Form 1 or 2 student, you may find it interesting to identify the nouns with their plurals...happy finding!




We begin with a fox,
whose plural is ________
but the plural of ox is ________,
not oxes
you may see a love mouse,
or a whole nest of ________
but more than one house,
is _______, not hice
if i speak of a foot and
two are called __________
and you show me your boot
would a pair be called __________?
i may have a brother or
i may have ____________,
but though i've a mother,
no one has mothren.
so English, i fancy
you all will agree
is the funniest language
you ever did see.






p/s: You'll find the poem both required regular and irregular plurals...
Find more irregular plurals and you may get excited because it's interesting!

p/s/s: Finding more irregular plurals can be used as the homework for students.
