3. Plurals Es importante que conozcas el plural de los objetos porque la interferencia de nuestra lengua materna puede confundirte y hacerte cometer errores al querer expresarte de algunos objetos en plural. La gran mayoría de los sustantivos se convierten en plurales sólo añadiendo una “s” al fi-nal de éstas y no hay algún otro cambio, a otros sustantivos podemos añadirle “-es” al final sin alterar tanto la palabra, sin embargo, hay sustantivos que, a diferencia de nuestro idioma, cam-bian completamente (formas plurales irregulares) y esto puede ocasionar que cometamos erro-res graves al querer añadir una “s” a las palabras y así formar palabras que simple y sencilla-mente no existen en inglés. Así mismo, existen también palabras a las que debemos cambiarles la terminación o añadir más de una letra al final. Observa las siguientes reglas para la formación de plurales y la pronunciación de éstos: Formación de plurales -La forma plural de la mayoría de los sustantivos se crea simplemente agregando -s:

a book = two books a key = two keys

-A los sustantivos que terminan en o, s, z, x, ch y sh se les debe agregar -es: a glass = two glasses

a hairbrush = two hairbrushes -A los sustantivos que tienen terminación “y” antecediéndole una consonante, debe cambiarse por “i” y añadir “es”:

a university = two universities a butterfly = two butterflies

-A los sustantivos que tienen terminación “fe” o “f” para el plural se substituye la terminación “fe” o “f” por “ves”

Wife = wives Wolf = wolves

-Sin embargo, hay varios sustantivos que tienen formas plurales irregulares: a child = two children a woman = two women a man = two men a person = two people a mouse = two mice

Ejemplo: En la siguiente tabla observa diferentes palabras que se relacionan con las reglas de las que se te habló anteriormente. Observa que algunas palabras sufren un cambio muy visible:

Potato potatoes glass glasses day days cake cakes Flower flowers child children lady ladies man men box boxes party parties

4. Demonstratives

En inglés se utilizan como adjetivos demostrativos singular "this" (este / esta) y "that" (ese / esa

/aquella/aquel). La diferencia entre “this y “that” es la distancia. Mencionamos “this” cuando

estamos relativamente cerca del objeto o persona de la que se habla.

This is my car. Este es mi coche

Mencionamos “that” cuando estamos alejados del objeto o persona de la que se habla.

That is my car. Ese es mi coche

La forma plural de los adjetivos demostrativos son: "these" (estos / estas) y "those" (esos / esas / aquellos / aquellas). La diferencia entre ellos es la distancia. Mencionamos “these” cuando estamos relativamente cerca de los objetos o personas de la que se habla.

These are my key. Estas son mis llaves

Mencionamos “those” cuando estamos lejos de los objetos o personas de la que se habla. Those are my keys. Esas son mis llaves

Exercise 6. Llena los espacios con: this, these, that or those.
