## Nouns

Okay, let's start!

Ps: Maybe write down some notes because you are going to have to do a test at the end of todays class.

Nouns

A noun is a person, place or thing and must be in every sentence. You can also call a noun a "PPT" to remember that a noun is a person, place or thing.

Examples of these nouns are:

| Nederland | Engels
People | man, meisje | man, girl
Animals | hond, paard | dog, horse
Things | auto, geld | car, money
Feelings | liefde, geluk | love, luck

Countable nouns

Some nouns, as the ones above, can be made plural; One books, two books. One girl, two girls. The noun means the same, but there are just more of that one noun. In English, we call these nouns you can count ‘countable nouns’.

Uncountable nouns

Some nouns, also as the ones above, you can not make plural; One love, two love? One luck, two luck?. You can not count these so we call them ‘uncountable nouns’.The most 'uncountable nouns' are food, materials, feelings, activities or something like this;

Food and drinks | bread, butter, meat, tea, rice
Materials | water, oil air, plastic, paper, wood
Feelings and concepts | love, anger, work, education, advice
Activities | swimming, shopping, cycling
Similiar things | money, luggage, furniture

Now, watch a short summary from Diana about the differences between 'countable nouns' and 'uncountable nouns'.
