Which word represents a singular noun?

Pencils
Babysitter
Countries
Children

The correct answer is: Babysitter

The term "Babysitter" clearly exemplifies a singular noun because it denotes a single person who is responsible for caring for children. In grammatical terms, singular nouns refer to one entity, while plural nouns signify multiple entities. In contrast, the other options denote plural forms or collective groups. "Pencils" refers to more than one pencil, "Countries" encompasses multiple nations, and "Children" is the plural form of child, indicating more than one child. Thus, "Babysitter" is the only option that accurately reflects a singular noun in this context.
