In linguistics, a noun is a part of speech that names a person, place, thing, animal, quality, or idea. Nouns act as the building blocks of sentences, usually serving as the subject or the object.
Types of Nouns
Nouns are categorized based on what they name and how they behave grammatically.
1. Proper vs. Common Nouns
Common Nouns: General names for things. They are not capitalized unless they start a sentence.
Examples: city, man, smartphone, planet.
Proper Nouns: Specific names for individual people, places, or organizations. These are always capitalized.
Examples: Paris, Albert Einstein, Apple, Mars.
2. Concrete vs. Abstract Nouns
Concrete Nouns: Things you can perceive with your five senses (see, touch, smell, hear, or taste).
Examples: coffee, thunder, silk, flower.
Abstract Nouns: Ideas, qualities, or conditions—things that have no physical reality.
Examples: freedom, love, courage, time.
3. Countable vs. Uncountable Nouns
Countable Nouns: Things that can be counted as individual units and have both singular and plural forms.
Examples: bottle/bottles, cat/cats, idea/ideas.
Uncountable (Mass) Nouns: Things that cannot be counted individually. They usually do not have a plural form.
Examples: water, rice, information, luggage.
4. Collective Nouns
These refer to a group of people or things acting as a single unit.
Examples: a team of players, a flock of birds, a jury of peers.
5. Compound Nouns
Nouns made up of two or more words working together as a single unit. These can be open (spaced), closed, or hyphenated.
Examples: bus stop (open), toothpaste (closed), mother-in-law (hyphenated).
