Plural Nouns

There are some nouns for which there is no pluralization rule. Consider these examples:


	Singular		Pluarl	

	mouse			mice
	louse			lice
	goose			geese
	deer			deer
	sheep			sheep
	tooth			teeth
	foot			feet

You can see that there are certain patterns in the ways that some of these words become plural, but there is no simple rule that you can apply and so you just have to remember how to pluralize these words.
Here are a few sample sentences with some of these examples and some of the spelling words for this unit.:

  The sheep are jumping over the plants.

  The chicken ran away from the mice.

  She has quick feet.
