Count and non-count nouns

[itobean]

Could someone please give some examples of count and non-count nouns?

I understand that with countable items you use fewer, number, and many. And then with non-countable items you use less, amount, quantity, and much.

But I have no idea what count and/or non-count nouns or items are!! HELP!!!

there are simple examples and the tricky as well.

which ones do you want?

things that you can count.
many people
fewer buckets of water.

things we cannot count

less water.
much higher.

these are very simple ex.

bring specific difficult if you find any problem with them. 8)

You can also just literally try to count whatever noun you're examining.

I can have:
1 dollar
2 dollars
3 dollars

So I can have many dollars.

I can't have:
1 money
2 moneys
3 moneys

So I can't have many money, but I can have much money.

Literally see if you can count the word - if so, use the "countable" descriptors. If not, use the "non-countable" descriptors.
