EXPRESSING EXISTENCE

Countable nouns

Countable nouns are nouns that we can count: car, house, book, etc. We can say one car, two cars, three cars, etc.

Countable nouns have singular and plural forms: a car/cars, a house/houses, a book/books, etc.

A/an + singular countable noun

We CANNOT use a singular countable noun without a determiner like a/anthemy, your, her, etc.

 
EX: I work as a teacher, as a sales manager...

Uncountable nouns = Do NOT use a/an

Uncountable nouns are nouns that we cannot count: money, milk, rain, etc. We cannot say one moneytwo moneys, etc. So, uncountable nouns do not have a plural form; they only have a singular formmoney, milk, rain, etc.

EX: I need to buy a packet of sugar (that is countable)

Some types of words that are typically uncountable are:

Food, drinks and liquids: cheese, bread, pasta, coffee, milk, petrol, fuel, etc.

Materials: iron, wood, metal, paper, plastic, etc.

Abstract ideas and feelings: information, advice, strength, time, love, excitement, etc.

Illnesses: diabetes, Alzheimer’s, cancer, etc.

Languages: English, French, Spanish, etc.
