Singular refers to one of something, while plural refers to more than one. In English, "cat" is singular for one cat, but "cats" is plural for two or more cats. Plural forms of nouns typically denote quantities other than one. Most commonly, plurals denote two or more things, but they can also denote fractional, zero, or negative amounts. Many languages, including English, have distinct singular and plural forms for nouns and other word types like verbs and adjectives that must agree with the number of associated nouns. Some languages also have a dual form for exactly two things.

2. SINGULAR
 Singular is a form of the noun that shows that
there is only one. The opposite of the singular
is the plural, which means there is more than
one.

3. For example, in English the word "cat" in one cat
is singular, but in two cats it is plural.
 Concepts are nouns which usually take the
singular. Thus "rhythm" as a concept is
singular. But when we talk of different types of
rhythm, those are particular rhythms.

4. PLURAL
 The plural, in many languages, is one of the
values of the grammatical category of number.
Plural forms of nouns typically denote a quantity
other than the default quantity represented by a
noun, which is generally one (the form that
represents this default quantity is said to be of
singular number). Most commonly, therefore,
plurals are used to denote two or more of
something, although they may also denote
fractional, zero or negative amounts. An example
of a plural is the English word cats, which
corresponds to the singular cat.

5.  Plurality is a linguistic universal[citation needed],
represented variously among the languages as
a separate word, an affix, or by other
morphological indications such as stress or
implicit markers/context.
 Words of other types, such as verbs, adjectives
and pronouns, also frequently have distinct
plural forms, which are used in agreement with
the number of their associated nouns.
 Some languages also have a dual (denoting
exactly two of something) or other systems of
number categories. However, in English and
many other languages, singular and plural are
the only grammatical numbers, except for
possible remnants of the dual in pronouns such
as both and either.
