    • Concrete Nouns represents the nouns which can be Nouns that can
    be identified through five senses (taste, touch, sight, hearing, or
    smell) come under concrete nouns. They can be touched, smelt, felt,
    seen or heard.

    Abstracts Nouns represents the nouns which cannot be touched or


    seen. These nouns ideas, qualities, or states rather than a concrete
    object.
    • For Instance:
    My brother is in love with a girl of great honour.

    In the above sentence, brother and girl are concrete nouns as they
    can be seen and touched.
    Love and honour are abstract nouns as they cannot be touched and
    seen.
