Singular and plural people

13:07

13:07

emily is a person too

13:09

um

13:10

so we have the singular you have one

13:14

person

13:15

one person

13:20

so

13:22

13:24

we are

13:26

two

13:27

people

13:28

jinx

um good

13:34

so

13:35

again one person

13:37

two

13:38

people

13:40

and then um so i am a man

13:46

i am a woman good and then um so the

13:50

plural so you have one man

13:53

but when you have two

13:55

it's called men

13:57

you may have learned other plural words

14:00

in english so when you have two or more

14:03

of something

14:04

well

14:05

a lot of the time for example when you

14:07

have

14:09

hello thanks for joining

14:11

captain t

14:12

um so

14:14

if you have one friend the plural of

14:17

friend you just add an s at the end

14:20

friend becomes friends

14:24

whereas

14:26

for man the plural is

14:28

men

14:30

and what about woman

14:32

um

14:33

well similar to

14:35

two men

14:36

one woman

14:38

two

14:39

women

14:40

now this one is a little strange you

14:43

probably know that english has strange

14:46

pronunciation

14:49

when you spell woman

14:51

so you have one woman

14:53

that's spelled w o m a

14:56

n two or more women is spelt w-o-m-e-n

15:04

but

15:05

you actually pronounce the plural of

15:09

it's actually the first vowel sound that

15:12

changes so

15:14

you don't say

15:16

so for it's one woman with

15:20

but two

15:21

way men with the we sound in the

15:24

beginning so that's how you know when

15:26

you're speaking if something is

15:29

if it's one woman or multiple women so

15:33

yeah um yeah

15:35

all right so when i was younger

15:38

i was not a

15:40

man

15:41

um

15:43
