Mistake: Plural Forms
Don't add -s after numbers with adjectives incorrectly.
Examples
- two apples, not two apple
Key rules
- Use a plural noun after a number greater than one
- Do not add -s to a noun after a number: two apples
- Irregular plurals such as children and mice do not take an extra -s
Common mistakes
- two apple → two apples
- three child → three children
Use cases
- Counting objects
- Shopping and prices
- Describing numbers of people
💡 Tip: Count the items: if the number is more than one, use the plural form of the noun.
