Question

Select the correct plural noun from the given singular form of the noun:
We need a few more _____ to do the packing. (box)

• A. boxes
• B. box
• C. boxed
• D. all of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

boxes

Nouns are words that name people, things, places, animals, etc.

When a noun ends with an 'x', we form the plural noun by adding an 'es' to it ('x' in 'box').

Option A: 'Boxes' is the plural form of the noun 'box'. Hence option A is correct.

Option B: 'Box' is a singular noun that names an object. It's not a plural noun and hence B is wrong.

Option C is wrong because 'boxed' is not a noun, but a verb.

Option D is wrong because the answer only lies in A.
