singular noun

Not a plural

A singular noun is a noun that refers to one person, place, thing, or idea: cat, city, happiness.

Most nouns have both singular and plural forms, with the singular being the base form that appears in dictionaries.

Some nouns exist only in singular form (information, furniture), while others are always plural (scissors, pants).
