NOUN

• A noun is the name of a person, place animal


or thing. There are five types of nouns. They
are -
• 1. Common Noun. 2. Proper Noun
• 3. Collective Noun 4. Material Noun, and
• 5. Abstract Noun
PROPER NOUN

• A Proper Noun is a name of a particular


person, place, animal or thing. Proper nouns
always begin with capital letters.

e.g. Priyanshi, Shimla, Honda


COMMON NOUN

•A Common Noun is a name common


to all persons, places, animals or
things of the same class or group.
e.g. doctor, village, giraffe, mat, etc...
COLLECTIVE NOUN
•A Collective Noun is name given to a
collection of persons, places, animals or
things.
MATERIAL NOUN

•A Material Noun denotes the matter or


substances of which things are made. For
example-

•This sweater is made of wool.


•She has worn a dress made of silk.
•I have a new leather purse.
ABSTRACT NOUN

• An Abstract Noun is the name of a quality, action,


or state, that we cannot taste or see. We can only
feel and think about it. For example-

Honesty (quality), theft (action), childhood (state).


By adding a letter or a set of letters, we can change
adjectives, verbs and common nouns to make abstract
nouns.
GENDER
• There are four kinds of Genders.
• A noun that stands for a male is a Masculine Gender.
• e.g. father, gentleman, boy, brother, uncle…
• A noun that stands for a female is a Feminine Gender.
• e.g. mother, lady, girl, sister, aunt, princess…
• A noun that stands neither for a male nor a female but is
common to both is a Common Gender.
• e.g. human, teacher, friend, soldier, animal, cushion…
GENDER
• Note: For some words we add ‘-ess’ to the masculine nouns to form
the feminine gender.
• e.g. shepherd – shepherdess
• Host – ho stess
• Animals (common gender) and some birds can also be divided into
masculine and famine gender.
• e.g. lion – lioness
NUMBER
• Singular means one, plural means more than one. Singular nouns
can be changed into their plural form in many ways:
• 1. by adding ‘s’
• Bee –bees
• Candle –candles
• Giraffe –giraffes
• Swing –swings
• Note: If there is a vowel before ‘y’ then only ‘s’ is added as in:
• Monkey –Monkeys
• Chimney –chimneys (more rules are there...)
ARTICLES

singular number. → a bat, a cat, an apple, an elephant.
We don’t say a water or an honesty as water and honesty are not
countable.

VERBS
A verb is a word which expresses an action or tells something about a
person or thing.

Be is the only verb that denotes being. Is, are, am, was, were, will be,
shall be are various forms of verb be.
Have shows possessing. Have, has, had, will have, shall have are various
forms.

Remember that :
Most verbs are doing verbs. Be and its forms suggest being.

Transitive Verb: A verb that requires an object to complete its sense is called a
transactive verb. ( I like____. → I like Pizza.)
Intransitive Verb: A verb that doesn’t require an object to make sense but
makes good sense by itself is called an intransitive verb. (Rahul shouted.)
Incomplete Verb: If the verb doesn’t express an action, doesn’t show
possession, we call such verb as Incomplete Verb. (Ashok is Happy.)
Simi Seems → Simi seems sad.
(Here, the word “sad” is added to complete the meaning and to complete the
predicate, such words are called complement to the Verb.
