Identify the form of noun in this sentence. The noun has already been underlined. The jury decided to let go the culprit on the condition that he will commit to community service Correct Answer Collective

Correct answer: 4.

There are different types of noun. They are:


1. Common noun: A noun that refers to people or things in general, e.g. boy, country, bridge, day.

2. Proper noun: A name that refers to a particular person, place, or thing, e.g. Gaurav, Africa. 

3. Concrete noun: A noun which talks about people and things that exist physically and can be seen, touched, heard, smelled, or tasted. Examples include coffee, tree, rain, beach.

4. Abstract noun: A noun which refers to ideas, qualities, and conditions - things that cannot be seen and which have no physical reality, e.g. truth, danger, friendship, humour.

5. Collective noun: Collective nouns refer to groups of people or things, e.g. audience, family, government.

6. Countable and uncountable nouns: Nouns can be either countable or uncountable. Countable nouns (or count nouns) refer to something that can be counted. Example: dog, cat.
Uncountable nouns (or mass nouns) do not typically refer to things that can be counted and so they do not regularly have a plural form. Example: A few books, lots of oranges.
