we'll begin with box, and the plural is boxes,
but the plural of ox schould be oxen not oxes
the one fowl is a goose, but two are calles geese,
yet the plural of mouse should never bee meese.
you may find a lone mouse, or a whole nest of mice,
but the plural of house is houses, not hice.
If the plural of man is always called m en
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen?
the cow in the plural mau be cows or kine,
but a bow, if repeated, is never called bine,
and the plural of vow is vows, never vine.
if i speak of a foot, and you show me your feet,
and i give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
if one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth
why shouldn't the plural of booth be called beeth?
if the singular is this and the plural is these,
should the plural of kiss ever be nicknamed keese?
the one may be that and three would be those,
yet hat in the would never be hose,
and the plural of cat is cats, not cose.
We speak of a brother and also of brethern.
But though we say mother, we never say methren.
Then the masculine pronousn are he, his, him,
but imagine the feminine she, shis, ans shim
