The main thing or concept in English which conveys the meaning any word or sentence is NOUN

Firstly, we need to judge what kind a noun must be either singular or plural.

                                  Singular                    Plural                        

                           Woman                         Women             

               Sheep                            Sheep

               Fish                               Fish

                Foot                               Feet

                 News                              News

                    Politics                           Politics

There are those words which remains same, but, candidates get confused in exam in Listening especially.


                                  Singular                     Plural                        

                          Pants                             Pants            

                  Scissors                         Scissors

                    Pajamas                         Pajamas

                 Water                             Water

                   Gold                               Gold

                    Sand                               Sand


 Now, lets have bit more clearance about this:

Those words ending with s, ch,sh and x  will have 'es' when they converted into plural.

Glass -into- Glasses 

Dish -into- Dishes

Watch -into- Watches

Box -into- Boxes

But, if the word is ending with 'Y' and while converting that word into plural will have 'ies' onthe place of 'Y'.

Family -into- Families

Fly -into- Flies

Sky -into- Skies

Dry -into- Dries

Many candidates write Fly into Family or Familys and lose overall band score.

Moreover, Noun ending with 'O' have 'es' to become a plural word.

Do -into- Does

Tomato -into- Tomatoes

Potato -into- Potatoes

Hero -into- Heroes

If a noun is ended with 'oo' then it will be written it as noun+s only, such as Bamboo -into- Bamboos

Noun ending with f/fe will changes into 'ves'

Thief -into- Thieves 

Shelf -into- Shelves

Leaf -into- Leaves

Wife -into- Wives

Here too, candidates do a lot many mistakes.


In IELTS most of the answers are nouns either it is in listening or in reading module.

Do Remember, Singular or Plural answers matter a lot, false noun will give 0 as an incorrect spelling.

The given maps depict the changes that occurred in the town of Langley and how it was in the past years.  In 1910, on both sides of Jordan Street, there were few small houses. The same street towards the south was facing the railway lines just beside the cottages for railway employees as well as wasteland. Sherman Street was surrounded by houses and ended at the cafe opposing store and laundry buildings. In the north side, there was a factory on the right of another wasteland.

Some people think it is more important to plant more tree in open areas in towns and cities than provide more housing. To what extent do you agree or disagree.

Since the beginning, trees have furnished us with two of life’s essentials that are food and oxygen. I agree to point that plantation is necessary which enhances the quality of life, but, shelters must be given some priority as it is also our basic necessity.  Letting trees to own open areas for them is an intensive change today's environment needs. They are contributing our nature by improving air quality, preserving soil and supporting wildlife; moreover, human life directly depends on these things. Deforestation done from past years lead to bad weather conditions and its dramatic nature, due to which inhabitants again want a healthy life. A best peaceful life is only possible when we are surrounded by trees which also gives us positive vibes that can not be taken using artificial methods. Rather a shelter is also an indispensable requirement, but the land must be owned as per the size of the family not according to the wealth of a person. Increasing population is cutting trees t...
