IDIOMS PART 2

AND MAYBE SOMETHING ELSE


FIRST, YOU TOLD ME AN IDIOM
LAST WEEK
“Una golondrina no
hace la primavera”

Or something like that…


Well, in English that would be:
“One swallow does not make a
summer”
Did you notice any difference?
In this case we have the
change of the season
that we are talking about

We went from SPRING to


SUMMER
At the end, this changes nothing
The meaning of the idiom is the same

Now, let’s introduce you to a
new topic.
Nouns!
Nouns are just the name of
things
And yes, also people!
Nouns can be
singular and plural

To create singular and


plural we need to add
some things, of course
hehehe

For this, we have


two types

Regular
And
Irregular

Let’s start with the regular ones


For the regular one we need the following rules

IF IT ENDS IN… WE ADD… EXAMPLE

S, x, z, ch, sh es Wish - Wishes

Consonant + Y ies Baby - Babies

Any other letter Just an S House - Houses


Irregular nouns are tricky
And the only way of knowing them is “by heart”
Woman Women Mouse Mice

Man Men Goose Geese

Child Children Half Halves

Tooth Teeth Knife Knives

Foot Feet Wife Wives

Person People Potato Potatoes

Leaf Leaves Tomato Tomatoes


Word of the day!
