- A noun is the name of a person, animal, place or thing.
- A noun can also name materials, an idea, an emotion, a quality, or a state.

2. Concrete and Abstract Nouns
- All nouns can be classified as abstract or concrete.
- Concrete nouns occupy space and can be seen, felt, and touched.
- Abstract nouns do not occupy space, so they cannot be seen or touched, though they can be felt and understood.
3. Formation of Abstract Nouns
- Abstract nouns can be formed from adjectives, verbs, and common nouns.
- Abstract nouns can be formed from adjectives, e.g. brave to bravery, long to length, false to falsehood.
- Abstract nouns can be formed from verbs, e.g. know to knowledge, choose to choice, judge to judgment.
