Common and Proper Nouns (普通名词和专有名词)

名词可以分为专有名词(Proper Nouns)和普通名词 (Common Nouns)。 专有名词是某(些)人,地方,机构等专有的名称。 普通名词是一类人或东西或是一个抽象概念的名词。普通名词又可分为下面四类: 1)个体名词(Individual Nouns):表示某类人或东西中的个体,如:gun。 2)集体名词(Collective Nouns):表示若干个个体组成的集合体,如:family。 3)物质名词(Material Nouns):表示无法分为个体的实物,如:air。 4)抽象名词(Abstract Nouns):表示动作、状态、品质、感情等抽象概念,如:work。

个体名词和集体名词可以用数目来计算,称为可数名词(Countable Nouns)。 物质名词和抽象名词一般无法用数目计算,称为不可数名词(Uncountable Nouns)。 归纳一下,名词的分类可以下图表示:
