2. Countable nouns
Uncountable nouns

3. • Countable nouns are easy to recognize.
They are things that we can count.
• Countable can be divided into two
types of noun there are singular and
plural
• For example: "pen". We can count
pens. We can have one, two, three or
more pens.

4. 1. can be changed to plural form
Example:
There is a pen in the table
(singular)
There are two pens in the table (plural)

5. Example:
There is a man in that room
I bought an umbrella last week
Theson of my teacher is lawyer

6. 3. We can use many, several and some
with plural countable nouns
We can use some and any with
countable and uncountable nouns
Example:
She doesn’t have many cars
I've got some dollars

7. 4. If a countable noun is singular, the
verb must be followed by
s/es, is, was(tobe)
Example:
My teacher stands near the door

8. 5. If a countable noun is plural, the verb is
unfollowed by s/es but the verb should
be followed are or were
Example:
Our books are on the table

9. back

10. Uncountable nouns can only be used in
singular. These nouns cannot be used
with a number. they can't be counted.
For example, we cannot count "milk".
We can count "bottles of milk" or "litres
of milk", but we cannot count "milk"
itself.

11. 1. We usually treat uncountable nouns as
singular
Example:
This news is very important

12. 2. We do not use the indefinite article
a/an with uncountable nouns
We cannot say "an information" or "a
music". But we can say a something of
Example:
A piece of news

13. 3. We can use some and any with
uncountable nouns
Example:
She want some water
She need some money
Anyone can do it
She has not any money

14. 4. Sometimes, the same noun can
be countable and
uncountable, often with a change of
meaning.
some supposedly uncountable
nouns can behave like countable
noun if we think of them as being in
containers, or one of several types.
This is because ‘containers’ and
‘types’ can be counted.

15. Example:
There are two hairs in my coffee
(countable noun)
I don't have much hair
(uncountable)
Doctors recommend limiting
consumption of two coffees a day
(countable noun)

16. 5. We can use much, a lot of, a great deal
of or plenty of with uncountable noun.
Example :
have you much money ?
There is a lot of water in this glass.
