Pluralization Rules and Exceptions

Denise, an English teacher, explains how to pluralize nouns ending in s, x, ch, sh, and ss by adding 'es'. She provides examples like boss, box, church, bush, and dress, and notes the pronunciation of 'es' as 'is'. Exceptions to this rule include words like monarch and stomach, which do not follow the 'es' rule due to their different 'ch' sound. Instead, they become plural by simply adding 's'. Denise encourages viewers to practice with quizzes linked in the description and concludes by asking them to like, share, and subscribe.
