COUNTABLE NOUNS
Countable nouns are nouns that can be counted as individual
units. They have both singular and plural forms. For example,
you can say "one book" (singular) or "two books" (plural).
You can use numbers directly with countable nouns, and they
often take articles like "a" or "an" in the singular form, for
example “My father has a red car.

cannot be counted or measured individually. Below is a detailed

1. They are not plural.
2. They cannot be counted individually.
3 They are used with singular verbs.

little, enough).

1. There is a lot of traffic in the city. (traffic is a
non-countable noun)

forma plural y no se pueden acompañar de números,
