assalamualaikum wbt. thank you for my blog, you will enjoy reading my own post. for the week three learning course, my class (tesl) is supposed to learn noun and determiners. during lecture, I was exposed to noun but in detail. where noun comes from? my foundation english's lecturer told us that noun derives from the Latin nomen, meaning 'name' referto place, person, thing, and event. apart from that, I also learnt about the countable nouns,singular nouns,collective nouns, abstract nouns and genitive nouns.
As for the countable noun, it is usually singular/plural form that you can count (count nouns). It is usually indefinite article ('a' or 'an').Moreover, abstract noun is a noun that you cannot sense, see, hear and touch. Collective noun, on the other hand, is a noun that is used to refer to groups of people, animals.
In conclusion, noun can be explained based on 4 terms : common, proper, collective, and abstract. I am looking forward to learn more things throughout this semester.
