Question

Fill in the blank with suitable noun:
The ________ were caught by the cops and put in the jail. 

  1. Thief
  2. Thiefs 
  3. Thieves 
  4. None of the above 

hintHint:

A plural noun is one of the forms of noun which is used to refer to more than one entity. Usually, plural nouns are written the same as the word by simply adding 's', 'es', 'ies' to the end. But there are some exceptional words where this thumb rule is not applicable. 

The correct answer is: Thieves 


    Choice No 3
    The plural of thief is 'thieves'. More than one thief would be its plural form, that will be made by adding suffix '-ves' to the word 'thief' and eliminating the last letter 'f'. Therefore, the plural of 'thief' becomes 'thieves'.
