Abstract nous
- are those referring to ideas, concepts, emotions, and other "things" you can’t physically interact with. You can’t see, taste, touch, smell, or hear something named with an abstract noun.
Collective nouns
- A collective noun is a word that refers to a group. It can be either singular or plural, but is usually used in the singular.
Proper nouns
- Proper nouns have two distinct features: They name specific one-of-a-kind items, and they begin with capital letters, no matter where they occur within a sentence.
Common nouns
