The Meaning of Nouns
A noun is a word used for naming
some person, or things such as
activites, concepts, or ideas, and
animate or inamate objects
Nouns make up the largest class of words in
most languages, including English. A noun is a
word that refers to a thing (book), a person
(Betty Crocker), an animal (cat place (Omaho), a
quality (softness), an idea (justice), or an action
(yodeling). It's usua a single word, but not always:
cake, shoes, school bus, and time and a half are all
nouns.
A. History

Noun comes from the Latin nōmen "name", a

translation of Ancient Greek ónoma. Word classes
like nouns were first described by Pāṇini in the
Sanskrit language and by Ancient Greek
grammarians, and were defined
by the grammatical forms that they take.
 There are a number of different categories of nouns.

There are common nouns and proper nouns. A

common noun refers to a person, place, or thing
but is not the name of a particular person, place, or
thing. Examples are animal, sunlight, and
happiness. A proper noun is the name of a
particular person place, or thing; it usually begins
with a capital letter: Abraham Lincoln, Argentina,
and World War I
A collective noun is a noun that names a
group of people or things, such as flock or
squad. It's sometimes unclear whether the
verb for a collective noun should be

The use of this determiner is characteristic
when someone uses a singular noun. If it
starts with a vowel, it must start with an .

Meanwhile, this plural noun is used when

you want to express a plural noun. If it is
countable, then only need to add -s/-es after
the root word.
