    The document discusses countable and uncountable nouns. Countable nouns can be pluralized and use "how many" questions, while uncountable nouns do not pluralize and use "how much" questions. Examples are provided of countable nouns like dog, boy, house that can be counted, and uncountable nouns like water, air, rice that cannot be counted precisely. The document then provides exercises to practice identifying countable vs uncountable nouns and using "how many" vs "how much" in questions.

    Primary Grammar: Countable, Uncountable

    Countable nouns are nouns that we can count using numbers. They have
    both a singular and plural form. You can ask “how many…” when
    combined with the plural noun.
    One dog One boy One house One ball
    Two dogs Two boys Two houses Two balls
    Three dogs Three boys Three houses Three balls

    Uncountable nouns are for things we cannot count with numbers.


    Uncountable verbs do not have a plural form. You can ask “how much…”
    when combined with an uncountable noun.
    water air rice
    ice cream time homework

    When using uncountable nouns, we need to say the exact measurement


    or use a word/expression like ‘some’, ‘a lot of’, ‘much’.

    • I like to drink a lot of water.

    • I need two scoops of ice cream.

    • I have too much homework.

    • I will have one bowl of rice.
