COUNTABLE AND UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS

Countable nouns are for things we can countExample: dog, horse, man, shop, idea.Uncountable nouns are for the things that we

cannot countExample: tea, sugar, water, air, rice.They are often the names for abstract ideas or

qualities.Example: knowledge, beauty, anger, fear, love.Examples of common uncountable nouns:

money, furniture, happiness, sadness, research.

We cannot use a/an with these nouns. To express a quantity of one of these nouns, use :some, a lot of, a piece of, a bit of, a great deal of...Examples: There has been a lot of research into the causes of this disease.He gave me a great deal of advice before my interview.They've got a lot of furniture.Can you give me some information about uncountable nouns?
