What is the correct form of noun of stretch?
The word 'stretch' is the correct form of the noun. The word 'stretch' is a noun (stretch, stretches), a verb (stretch, stretches, stretching, stretched), and an adjective (stretch). The noun 'stretch' is a common, concrete noun; a countable noun as a word for exercises used to limber the muscles; an uncountable noun as a word for the ability of a fabric or material to extend when pulled with some force. (2) A good way of checking if a word operates as a noun is to see if you can put a determiner ('a' or 'the' for example) in front of it in a sentence. In these sentences: "It was quite a stretch for us, but we made it"; "The stretch of road between the mall and the beach front was wet and slippery"; "The judge sentenced the prisoner to a stretch behind bars", 'stretch' operates as a noun. Note that putting a modifier between the determiner and the noun doesn't stop it being a noun:"It was a big stretch but we made it"; "The broken stretch of road leading to the beach front is dangerous"; "The judge gave the drunk driver a two year stretch"; "Yusain Bolt broke his leg in the home stretch". 'I always stretch after exercise"; "My jeans won't stretch"; "They stretch their resources to breaking point to stay on budget": here 'stretch' is working as a verb. And in "She was wearing stretch jeans and a cut-off T-shirt when she pulled up at the Prom in a stretch limo." as an adjective.
