1. Countable and Non-countable Nouns

2. A countable noun is a noun that can be counted or quantified as individual units. These nouns have both singular and plural forms. Here are a few examples of countable nouns: Book: singular - "I have a book," plural - "I have three books." Table: singular - "I need a table," plural - "We have six tables." Car: singular - "She drives a car," plural - "They own two cars." Student: singular-"The student is studying," plural - "The students are studying."

3. Uncountable nouns: are things we can not count. An uncountable noun has only one form (rice). Examples: I eat rice every day. I like rice. We do not have enough water.

4. We use how much and how many to ask about quantities. How much + uncountable nouns How many + countable nouns Examples: Countable: How many apples do you want? Uncountable: How much rice do you want?

5. Much We use much in negative sentences and questions, with uncountable nouns. We never use much in affirmative sentences. Examples: I don’t eat much salt. Do you eat much salt?
