Please tell me an abstract noun. Then I can help you to use it in a sentence.

 

Hi Clive

I haven't read all the posts in this thread and thus I don't really know what this is all about.Smile "Abstract noun" is a term commonly used in grammar books on this side of the Atlantic. It is used to refer to uncountable nouns that have no physical dimensions and cannot be weighed: courage, happiness, absent-mindedness.
