Question

Select the correct plural noun from the given singular form of the noun:
They need more _____ for the catering business. (chef) [Basic]

• A. chef
• B. chef's
• C. chefs
• D. none of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

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

We form the plural noun by adding an 's' to it.

Option C: 'Chefs' is the plural form of the noun 'chef'. Hence option C is correct.

Option A: 'Chef' is a singular noun that names a professional cook. It's not a plural noun and hence A is wrong.

Option B is wrong because 'chef's' is a singular noun 'chef' in the possessive case (by adding 's to chef).

Option D is wrong because the answer lies in C.
