What Are Nouns?? By : MISS NORAINE JAMIL

Nouns Nouns are naming words. Everything we see or are able to talk about is represented by a word which names it - that word is called a 'noun'. There are names for people, animals, places, objects, substances, qualities, actions and measures.

Examples… soldier - Alan - cousin - Frenchman (< names for people) rat - zebra - lion - aardvark (< names for animals) house - London - factory - shelter (< names for places) table - frame - printer - chisel (< names for objects) lead - nitrogen - water - ice (< names for substances) kindness - beauty - bravery - wealth - faith (< names for qualities) rowing - cooking - barking - reading - listening (< names for actions) month - inch - day - pound - ounce (< names for measures)

The different types of nouns Common Nouns A common noun is the word used for a class of person, place or thing. Examples: Car Man Bridge Town

The different types of nouns Proper Nouns A proper noun is the name of a person, place or thing (i.e., its own name). A proper noun always starts with a capital letter. Examples: Michael United Nations The Tower of London Uncle George ("Uncle" is written with a capital letter because it is part of his name.) My favourite auntie is Auntie Sally. (In this example, the first "auntie" is a common noun; whereas, the second "Auntie" is part of a proper noun.)

The different types of nouns Collective Nouns A collective noun is the word used for a group of people or things. Examples: Choir Team Jury Shoal Cabinet (of ministers) Regiment

The different types of nouns Verbal Nouns Verbal nouns are formed from verbs. They are a type of common noun. I love swimming. ("swimming" - the name of an activity; it is formed from the verb 'to swim'.) Lateral thinking is required to solve this problem. ("thinking" - the name of an activity; it is formed from the verb 'to think'.)

The different types of nouns Compound Nouns Compound nouns are nouns made up of two or more words. Some compound nouns are hyphenated. (This is covered in the lesson Hyphens in Compound Nouns.) Mother-in-law Board of members Court-martial Forget-me-not Manservant Paper-clip
