Countable nouns are easy to recognize. They are things that we can count. For example: "pen". We can count pens. We can have one, two, three or more pens. Here are some more countable nouns: •dog, cat, animal, man, person •bottle, box, litre •coin, note, dollar •cup, plate, fork •table, chair, suitcase, bag Countable nouns can be singular or plural: •My dog is playing. •My dogs are hungry. We can use the indefinite article a/an with countable nouns: •A dog is an animal. When a countable noun is singular, we must use a word like a/the/my/this with it: •I want an orange. (not I want orange.) •Where is my bottle? (not Where is bottle?) When a countable noun is plural, we can use it alone: •I like oranges. •Bottles can break. We can use some and any with countable nouns: •I've got some dollars. •Have you got any pens?

flat day? When were you here?  Articles Rules: 1. Rule: When you have a single, countable English noun, you must always have an article before it. We cannot say "please pass me pen", we must say "please pass me the pen" or "please pass me a pen" or "please pass me your pen". Nouns in English can also be uncountable. Uncountable nouns can be concepts, such as 'life', 'happiness' and so on, or materials and substances, such as 'coffee', or 'wood'. 2. Rule:Uncountable nouns don't use 'a' or 'an'. This is because you can't count them. For example, advice is an uncountable noun

; grammatical categories: number, gender, case. Identifying nouns: meaning, function, form The noun phrase (NP): The NP consists of the head, which is typically a noun, and other elements which (either obligatory or optional) determine the head and (optionally) modify the head or complement another element in the phrase. The NP typically functions as the subject, object or complement of clauses and as complement of prepositional phrases. Peter likes the girl (determiner: def. article + head) the small girl (det + premodifier: adjective + head) the small girl in a black skirt (det + prem + head + postmodifier: prepositional phrase) the small girl wearing a black skirt (det + prem + head + postmodifier: non-finite clause) the small girl who is wearing a black skirt (det+prem+head + postmodifier: relative clause) her (head; the whole NP can be replaced by a pronoun)
