A noun is a word that names a person, place, thing, or idea. Nouns can be classified into different types:
  • Common vs. Proper: Common nouns name general objects (e.g., city, dog), while proper nouns name specific names (e.g., London, Rover) and are capitalized.
  • Concrete vs. Abstract: Concrete nouns refer to physical objects you can see or touch (e.g., apple, car), abstract nouns name ideas or feelings (e.g., happiness, time).
  • Singular vs. Plural: Singular nouns refer to one, plural nouns refer to more than one (usually formed by adding -s or -es).
  • Countable vs. Uncountable: Countable nouns can be counted (e.g., book/books), uncountable nouns cannot (e.g., water, rice).
Understanding nouns is key to building sentences and grammar.
