3 Unit 1: Nouns: Types of Nouns Introduction Unit 1: Nouns: Types of Nouns Introduction A common noun names a person, place, thing, or idea. Examples: girl, park, sled, beauty A proper noun names a specific person, place, or thing and should always begin with a capital letter. Examples: Susan, Yosemite, Mississippi River A singular noun names one person, place, thing, or idea. A plural noun names more than one person, place, thing, or idea. To most nouns, add s to form the plural. To nouns that end in s, sh, ch, ss and x, add es to form the plural. Examples: Singular building class fox Plural buildings classes foxes Some nouns are irregular and change completely to form the plural. Examples: mouse changes to mice man changes to men child changes to children goose changes to geese A possessive noun shows ownership. A singular noun is made to show possession by adding an apostrophe and the letter s. A plural noun that ends in s is made to show possession by adding an apostrophe. A plural noun that does not end in s is made to show possession by adding an apostrophe and an s.
