01.- COUNTABLES AND UNCOUNTABLES. READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION ABOUT
COUNTABLE NOUNS.
Countable nouns are nouns that can be counted. Most nouns in English are countable.

02-P-V-COUNT_UNCOUNT
02.- COUNTABLES AND UNCOUNTABLES. READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION ABOUT
UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS.
Uncountable nouns are not counted in English. This usually has to do with the way English
speakers think of these nouns. We often imagine these nouns as a single concept or one big
thing which is hard to divide. 
Uncountable nouns tend to belong to one of the following categories:
- Liquids and Gases: water
- Solid and Granular Substances: cheese
- Subjects: science
- Grouped Concepts: fruit
- Information and Abstract Concepts: advice

05-P-G-SOMEANYNO
05.- SOME/ANY/NO. GENERAL RULE.
 Remember that we use some, any and no before uncountable nouns or countable
nouns in the plural form.
  Remember that we use any in negative sentences and normal questions.
Ex: There isn’t any coffee. / There aren’t any bananas.
Is there any coffee? / Are there any bananas?
 Remember that we use some in affirmative sentences.
Ex: There is some coffee. / There are some bananas.
 We can also use some in questions which express an offering or a request.
Ex: Would you like some coffee? / Would you like some bananas?
Could I have some coffee? / Could I have some bananas?
 We can also use no in negative sentences with the verb in the affirmative form.
Ex: There’s no coffee. [= There isn’t any coffee.]
There are no bananas. [= There aren’t any bananas.]

Remember how to make the plural of nouns!

Nouns finishing in -y preceded by a vowel => we add –s Ex: boy => boys
Nouns finishing in -y preceded by a consonant => we remove the -y and add -ies Ex: lady => ladies
Nouns finishing in -o => we add -es Ex: tomato => tomatoes
Nouns finishing in -ss, -ch, -sh, -x => we add -es
Ex: glass => glasses watch=>watches wash => washes box=>boxes

child => children person => people woman => women man => men
tooth => teeth foot => feet sheep => sheep fish => fish

23-P-V-PARTITIVES
23.- READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION ABOUT PARTITIVE STRUCTURES.
To count or quantify an uncountable noun we use a unit of measurement.
For example, we cannot usually say “two milks” because “milk” is uncountable.
So, if we want to specify a quantity of milk, we use a measure word such as “glass”, “bottle”, or
“carton” and that way we can make it countable.
Ex: two glasses of bread / two bottles of milk / two cartons of milk
We call this structure a partitive structure. We can also use partitives with countable nouns
Some units of measurement are: bar, bottle, bowl, box, bunch, cup, glass, jar, loaf, piece, slice,
tub, etc.

meal during lunchtime. At least 5,428 participants answered they preferred having dinner
outside their houses and only 216 of them admitted their favourite meal to have in a
