Question

Identify the plural form of the noun given in bracket:
The _________ in the pond were swimming in circles. (fish)

• A. fishens
• B. fish
• C. fishes
• D. fishe's

Answer 1

The correct option is B fish

Options B and C: The plural form of the noun 'fish' will remain 'fish'. Hence option B is correct.

'Fishes' is a noun that refers to multiple species of fish and is spoken in the scientific sense. Hence it's not a suitable option for the given sentence.

Option A: The word 'fishens' does not exist in standard English language.

Option D: Similarly, 'fishe's' does not exist in the English language.

Hence options A and D are wrong.
