Question

Plural form of the word 'genus' is

• A. genees
• B. genera
• C. geneva
• D. genela

Answer 1

Answer:

B. genera

genus - A genus is a class or group of something (ജീവിവർഗ്ഗം) The word "genus" comes from Latin, and in Latin, the plural of "genus" is "genera." This follows the pattern of certain Latin nouns that end in "-us" in the singular form and change to "-era" in the plural form ( ഏകവചന രൂപത്തിൽ "-us" ൽ അവസാനിക്കുകയും ബഹുവചന രൂപത്തിൽ "-era" ആയി മാറുകയും ചെയ്യുന്നു).
