| NOUNSالأسماء Nouns mean every thing to us Definition: The word ‘noun’ comes from Latin nomen meaning
‘name’. A noun is the name of a thing. Everything that exists has
a name, whether you can see it or not. A blind person cannot see
something, but that does not mean that it isn’t there! It may only
exist in our minds, like hope, beauty or calories There are four kinds of nouns Common nounsالأسماء العامة
These are names of everyday things that we can see, hear or touch For example:
table, banana, volcano, song
We can put the word ‘the’ in front of them and make sense, as in
the rope, the poison
If it does not make sense, the word cannot be a noun Proper nounsالأسماء الخاصة ( أسماء العلم ) Definition: The word ‘proper’ comes from the French word propre
meaning one’s own, i.e. belonging to a particular person or thing
Proper nouns are the special names that we give to people,
places and particular things like the days of the week, months of
the year, or even the titles of books or TV shows For example:
Jason, Town Hall, China, French, The Wishing Chair
Because they are special and individual names, they start with a
capital letter and, apart from people, most of these things have
only one proper name Collective nouns الأسماء الجمع Definition: These are names for groups of things, animals or
people, which go together, or have something in common For example:
A number of people in a group singing is a choir
A number of cows in a group is a herd
Note here that if the group word is singular then the verb following
must also be singular For example: Correct – The choir was rehearsing in the chapel Incorrect – The choir were rehearsing in the chapel
There may, of course, be more than one group. In which case the
verb will be plural
The choirs were competing in the final Abstract nounsالأسماء المعنوية Definition: Abstract nouns form what can be the most difficult
group to understand, as they represent ideas, and have no physical
substance that you can see or touch
The idea may be of quality For example: beauty, greed, intelligence
or the idea may be a state that is felt or suffered, For example: joy, misery, neglect
It may be the act of something For example: duty, aggression
It may even be an event or happening
for example: conversation, pause أخيكم / سيد إسماعيل | |
