                                      Abstract Nouns

 

 

 

              Abstract Nouns name a quality or condition. You

                 cannot see, hear, touch, smell or taste abstract

                 nouns. This is why abstract nouns can be harder

                 to  pinpoint  than concrete nouns (eg. boy, 

                 house, candy, Mr. Smith) which you can see,

                 hear, touch , smell or taste.

                          

                Here are some examples of abstract nouns:
