                  you see?                   sand, etc.


            Nouns are names of a person, animal, thing, place or feeling.

            Types of Nouns:
            Proper Nouns are particular or specific names.
                   Examples:     Anisha         Nepal         Ritesh
            The first letter of a Proper Noun is written in capital letter.



            Common Nouns refer to any member of a class of similar things.
                   Examples:     book           house         dog



            Abstract Nouns suggest quality, action or state. Generally, abstract
            nouns are uncountable.
                   Examples:              hardness  theft    boyhood



            Collective Nouns suggest a singular word for a group.
            Examples:     family         team          herd
            Collective nouns can be used either as a singular noun or a plural noun.
