Types of Nouns English, Grammar Review

Types of Nouns Common/ Proper Abstract/ Concrete Collective Human/ Non-Human Plural/ Singular A noun will always be a person, place, thing or idea!

Common/ Proper Nouns A common noun is a general name for a person, place, thing or idea. Example- theater A proper noun is a name of a specific person, place, thing or idea. Example- Palace Theater Only proper nouns need to be capitalized, so a big clue is if the noun is capitalized.

Concrete Nouns These nouns are the ones we can visualize. Examples: Table, Rock, Flag, Hairdresser …you can SEE …you can TOUCH …you can TASTE …you can HEAR … you can SMELL

Concrete Nouns have Sight, Touch, Hear, Smell, Taste Disturbance- Hear Smoke- Sight Sour- Taste Leaves- Touch Stench- Smell

Abstract Nouns These nouns are usually ideas or concepts with no clear visual image. …Ideas …Thoughts …Feelings/ Emotions …Concepts Examples- Sincerity, Anger, Happiness, Hope, Love, Intelligence

Think of an image for HOPE Everyone has a different image in mind! These abstract nouns can only be described and imagined. This is why abstract nouns often have symbols to show meaning.

Human/ Non-Human Nouns Human…boys …girls Non-human… …animals …nature …objects

Choosing between human and nonhuman nouns is important when talking about a noun in a sentence. The rock smiled. WRONG! The boy smiled. Who is making that noise? (A person) What is making that noise? (Something nonhuman!)

Human/ Non-Human Nouns A good test to decide if a noun is human or non-human is to ask… Is the noun alive? Could I do this? Could a rock do this?

Collective Nouns Collective nouns name a group of people or things. Examples- crew, cast, audience, class, committee
