Are these words deligance and honesty plural?

No, "diligence" and "honesty" are not plural words. They are both singular nouns.

Here's why:

* Diligence refers to the quality of being hardworking and careful. It's a singular concept.

* Honesty refers to the quality of being truthful and sincere. It's also a singular concept.

To make them plural, you would add an "s" at the end:

* Diligences: (Multiple instances of hardworking efforts)

* Honesty's: (This is less common but can be used in specific contexts, like "honesty's importance" to emphasize the importance of honesty)
