The writer has explained part of the speech earlier, so she is going to share material especially in Noun material.
The basic question before knowing the material in deeply is "What is a noun?"
A noun is a word that refers to person,
place, thing, event, substance, or quality for instance Doctor, tree, beauty,
coal, party.
Bali is a
beautiful island.
In that sentence, Bali is a noun
which has a subject in position.
A. Common Noun is a word
that refers to a place, person or thing. There are five branches of common nouns,
they are abstract nouns, collective nouns, compound nouns, concrete nouns,
gender-specific nouns, and verbal nouns.
1. Abstract noun is a thing that
we cannot touch or see it, but we can feel it. for instance, joy, love, bravery, and etc.
2. Collective Nouns is a noun that
describes a group, for example, a team, choir, and etc.
3. Compound Nouns is a noun that
made up of more than one word e.g., water bottle, pickpocket, sunglasses and
etc.
4. Concrete Nouns is a thing that
we can see or touch, for example, tree, laptop, pencil, cloud, sun, and etc.
5. Verbal Noun is a noun derived
from a verb, for example, running.
B. Proper Noun is the name of a person, place or thing (i.e.,
its own name). A proper noun always starts with a capital letter. For example:
Bali, Mike, Fort Rotterdam, and etc.

are divided into two parts. The first one is Singular and the second one is
plural. Basically singular and plural nouns are added s/-es however the
