Question:

Which of the following is a correct pair of singular and plural?

Options:

Storey:Stories

Stomach:Stomachs

Tooth:Tooths

Hair:Hairs

Correct Answer:

Stomach:Stomachs

Explanation:

Among the given options, the correct pair of singular and plural is:

Stomach: Stomachs

Here's an explanation of all the options:

  1. Storey: Stories - This is incorrect. The singular form is "storey," referring to a level or floor in a building, and the plural is "storeys," not "stories."

  2. Stomach: Stomachs - This is correct. The singular form is "stomach," referring to the organ in the body, and the plural is "stomachs."

  3. Tooth: Tooths - This is incorrect. The singular form is "tooth," and the plural is "teeth," not "tooths."

  4. Hair: Hairs - In most cases, "hair" remains the same in both singular and plural forms when referring to the collective mass of hair.

So, "Stomach: Stomachs" is the correct pair.
