Countable nounsare things that can be counted. A countable noun can be singular or plural: one apple, two apples... When we want to count them we use ….. • A/An (singular / just one) A/An … or any cardinal number ten houses An apple A doctor A class three colleges A meal • SOME Some cups Some books Some libraries Some flights • ANY (As SOME but in negative and interrogative) I don’t have any cups at home (I have some glasses at home) They bought some CDs but they didn’t buy any books • A LOT OF (It means MUCHOS) A lot of questions A lot of problems A lot of issues • MANY (As A LOT OF but in negative and interrogative) They didn’t asked many questions.

Uncountable nouns are things that cannot be counted so they only have singular form: some rice, some tea... They usually refer to abstractions (such as confidence or advice) or collectives (such as equipment or luggage). Information, happiness, equipment… • Some and Any are used with both countable and uncountable nouns.
Some uncountable nouns in English can be countable in other languages. Here you have a list of the most common uncountable English words: haven’t got any sugar advice bread news luggage baggage furniture spaghetti pasta weather research work money grass scenery health progress º • COUNTING THE UNCOUNTABLES. • SOME Some sugar Some money Some water Some time • ANY (As SOME but in negative and interrogative) Have you got any salt?
