Question

Select the correct plural noun from the given singular form of the noun:

My ______ are hurting from jogging after a long time. (foot)

a) Foot
b) Foot’s
c) Feets
d) Feet

Answer 1

Hint: The word ‘foot’ does not take a conventional plural form of a noun in English usage.

Complete step by step Answer:

The plural form of the word ‘foot’ is ‘feet’ in conventional English usage. The completed sentence is as follows: My feet are hurting from jogging after a long time. ‘Foot’ is a noun which takes up an irregular plural noun i.e plural form of noun changes itself completely. Therefore, option d is a correct option.

The word ‘foot’ is the singular form of the noun. Therefore, option a is an incorrect option. Apostrophe is never used in plural form of noun in general English usage. Therefore, option b is an incorrect option. Similarly, the plural noun ‘feet’ never takes ‘s’ in the end. Therefore, option c is an incorrect option.

Note: Keep in mind the change in form in plural nouns.
