Countable and uncountable nouns
Countable nouns

Countable nouns are for things we can count using numbers. They have a singular and a
plural form. The singular form can use the determiner "a" or "an". If you want to ask about
the quantity of a countable noun, you ask "How many?" combined with the plural countable
noun.

Singular Plural
one dog two dogs
one horse two horses
one man two men
one idea two ideas
one shop two shops

Examples

 She has three dogs.

 I own a house.
 I would like two books please.
 How many friends do you have?

Uncountable nouns

Uncountable nouns are for the things that we cannot count with numbers. They may be the
names for abstract ideas or qualities or for physical objects that are too small or too
amorphous to be counted (liquids, powders, gases, etc.). Uncountable nouns are used with a
singular verb. They usually do not have a plural form.

Examples

 tea
 sugar
 water
 air
 rice
 knowledge
 beauty
 anger
 fear
 love
 money
 research
  safety
 evidence

We cannot use a/an with these nouns. To express a quantity of an uncountable noun, use a
word or expression like some, a lot of, much, a bit of, a great deal of , or else use an exact
measurement like a cup of, a bag of, 1kg of, 1L of, a handful of, a pinch of, an hour of, a day
of. If you want to ask about the quantity of an uncountable noun, you ask "How much?"

Examples

 There has been a lot of research into the causes of this disease.
 He gave me a great deal of advice before my interview.
 Can you give me some information about uncountable nouns?
 He did not have much sugar left.
 Measure 1 cup of water, 300g of flour, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
 How much rice do you want?

a / an + singular countable noun ( a pen, an apple)    

some  + plural countable nouns - positive sentences ( There are some cars)
some +  uncountable nouns - positive sentences  ( There is some oil)    
any - we use any in negative sentences and in most questions.(countable and
uncountable nouns)  I don't have any pens. There isn't any salt.      
Do you have any sisters?
