The plural form for a measure of quantity typically involves adding an "s" or "es" to the end, like "cups" or "boxes." In English, when we want to describe more than one of something, we usually add an "s" or "es" to the end of the word. This is true for regular nouns (like "cat" becoming "cats") and also true for most units of measure (like "mile" becoming "miles"). The exact rules can be a bit complicated and depend on the specific word. It's also important to remember when using a plural form of a measure of quantity in a sentence to ensure that the rest of your sentence agrees in number. For example, you would say "two cups of flour" not "two cup of flour." Isn't language fascinating? 📚
