In the classroom dialogue, what is the correct plural form of the word 'student'?

• A. student
• B. students
• C. studentes
• D. studiant

Answer: (B)

When talking about more than one student, English forms plurals by adding -s to the end of a regular noun. So the word becomes students, not the base form or a foreign-looking ending. In a classroom dialogue, you’d say things like “The students are ready” to refer to multiple learners. The other options are not correct: one student is singular, and stu dentes or studiant aren’t correct English plural forms for this word.
