Spelling 4 - Nouns
Nouns are a vital part of the English language and we have learnt their many classifications, such as collective nouns, abstract nouns and compound nouns. Spellings are almost as vital as nouns in written English and learning the spellings of nouns would be very useful.
English has a peculiarity, especially in its spellings. You know that there is no ambiguity about letters. There are twenty-six of them in the alphabet, of which five are vowels and twenty-one are consonants. It is an unwritten rule that every word must contain at least one of the five vowels. As usual, there are some exceptions with words, such as SKY and RHYTHM, which do not have any of the vowels.
