noun

A noun is a word that represents a person, place, thing, or idea. You use nouns every day when you talk about your friends, family, and surroundings.

Nouns can refer to anything from people and animals to buildings and countries. When we talk, we often point out specific objects with our words - for example, "my phone" is a noun because it's a thing we can see and touch. On the other hand, when we describe feelings or concepts like happiness or freedom, those are also nouns because they're ideas that we can think about and try to understand. Even abstract things like love and time fall into this category as well.
