Nouns 06 - Abstract and Concrete Nouns
A noun is one of the eight parts of speech that are fundamental to learning English. In previous quizzes we were able to classify nouns into different types. We learnt that nouns can be classified as common nouns, proper nouns or compound nouns. In this quiz we will turn our attention to two types of nouns - namely, concrete nouns and abstract nouns.
Concrete nouns are nouns that can be felt by the five senses of sound, sight, touch, smell and taste. Concrete nouns are the largest group of nouns in the English language. They encompass all humans, animals, birds, plants, places and objects. We can use our senses to enjoy the different attributes displayed by concrete nouns.
