What is an uncountable noun?

Countable nouns are nouns which can be counted in numbers. For example, one house / two houses. When we use countable nouns, we use the article “a” and the plural “s” (a house, two houses).

Uncountable nouns are nouns which can’t be counted. For example, information. It is not possible to say one information/ two informations. The word “information” can’t be counted using numbers. It can never have a plural “s”. It can never have an article “a” or “an”. And it can never be quantified with any number. However, when using uncountable nouns, you will need to use a singular third person verb tense “information is” and it can never be “information are”.

What types of uncountable nouns are there?

Most uncountable nouns relate to:

  • liquids (milk, water)
  • abstract ideas (advice, chaos, motivation)
  • powder and grain (rice, wheat, sand)
  • mass nouns (furniture, hair, transportation)
  • natural phenomena (sunshine, snow, rain, weather)
  • states of being (sleep, stress, childhood)
  • feelings (anger, happiness, enthusiasm, courage)
  • gas (oxygen, air)

Uncountable Nouns & Grammar

  • How much …? = uncountable nouns / How many …? = countable nouns /
  • These = countable / This = uncountable
  • many = countable / a lot of = uncountable (and countable)
  • not many = countable / not much uncountable (we use “much” with negative uncountable nouns)

To express an amount of an uncountable noun, you must use other words.

  • some information = a piece of information
  • some clothing = one item of clothing / two items of clothing
  • some equipment = a piece of equipment / two pieces of equipment
  • some water = a cup of water / two glasses of water

Irregular Uncountable Nouns

Some nouns can be both countable and uncountable.

Room  = has two meanings. One is countable and one is uncountable.

  • If this is about a room in a house, it is countable.
  • If this is relating to space “there isn’t much room in this place”, it is uncountable.

Hair = this can be countable and uncountable depending on how you use it.

  • “There is a hair in my soup”. This refers to only one strand of hair and is countable.
  • “He has a lot of hair”. This refers to the mass of hair and is considered uncountable.

Business = this can be countable and uncountable.

  • “He is going to Paris on business”. This is uncountable.
  • “I will take my business elsewhere”. This is uncountable and means I will take my custom to another shop.
  • “He studies business at school”. This is uncountable.
  • “I am planning to start a new business”.  Countable.

This is a difficult one with a lot of exceptions. Here’s a link with a list of rules for the word business / countable and uncountable.

  1. I strongly agree with the above statement that underprivileged children are LESS vulnerable to fighting the outside world when they reach adulthood. While they see their parents working hard all day to put food on the table, a sense of responsibility automatically develops in them.

    For instance, poor parents teach their children how to survive on low income by example, they can not provide for their child sometimes, even the necessities of life so the child learn patience at a very young age. On the other hand, a child who is never deprived of anything he asked for would never be able to adopt patience and would not be that strong to fight the world.

    secondly, a poor child is an asset to the society,when he takes positively his less priveledged life. Thats a normal behavior that when a person knows his belongings before his journey he would be prepared with his possessions throughtout the journey. same is the case with a poor child he os already aware of his lackings from childhood so his managing abilities are developed.

    Liz can you please help me checking this, iam having great troubles while writing an essay, it looks like a mountain to conquer. Please support!

  2. Imran Ali says

    Which of the following two sentences is correct to say,
    (a) “Computer is a wonder of modern science”
    (b) “A computer is a wonder of modern science”

    • When you have a countable noun, you need an article unless it is plural. This means you can’t have option A. A singular countable noun needs an article. But you could have “Computers are a wonder of modern science.” This would be completely correct because we are not talking about one single computer or one particular computer, we are talking about computers in general which requires a plural noun. Please get my Grammar E-book from my online store as I have a full section explaining this with loads of examples: https://elizabethferguson.podia.com/

  4. Hi Liz,

    Thank you for sharing the uncountable nouns sheet. I was just confused about the Question 8 in “IS/ARE”. Why it use ” one of the best times”? Isn’t time an uncountable noun? Thank you for your reply.

  5. Thanks so much for the explaining the lesson clearly

  7. onito says

    Hi Liz,

    Is ‘government’ and ‘area’ countable? should I use ‘governments’ and ‘areas’?

    Also do I need a comma after all relative pronouns? “….., which….”

    Thank you

    • The words “government” and “area” are countable.
      Using commas with relative clauses depends on the type of relative clause. This can’t be taught in just a quick message on a website. It takes me 13 pages to teach relative clauses in my Grammar E-book. You can find it in my online store: https://elizabethferguson.podia.com/

    hi ma’am
    my dout is we should not write uncountable nouns in writing task?
    please reply liz mam thank you

    • Of course you can use uncountable nouns. You can use the nouns you need to use. Just make sure you use them correctly.

  11. samuel says

    Hi. Just a question.
    There is a sentence, which I would like to understand better, in the exercise regarding the use of “a lot of, many, much”. The sentence is the following:
    Many education policies are designed to protect students but ensure a high level of learning.
    Why do you use the world “many”? Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to use “a lot of”?
    Thanks for your answer.

    • The word “policies” is countable which means you can use “many” or “a lot of”.

  12. Fathelrahman says

  14. morvarid says

    hi I’m from Iran I can’t undrestand difference between countable and uncountable how I can learn it completely ?
    please help me

  15. Shailesh Johar says

    I believe an ‘s’ is acceptable, rather a necessity with uncountable nouns when we change tense or when used as a verb. For eg.
    Music ‘calms’ him down.
    There are many ‘energies’ which are immeasurable.
    His comments always ‘fuels’ the rift between the two countries.
    It ‘snows’ during January but ‘rains’ across June and July.

    Also, how about “I need ‘an’ advice” or “I have an advise for you”? I think ‘an’ advice is as good as some advice.

    PS: Your lessons are great. They are very helpful, covers minute details and tips which are generally ignored in other online lessons. Keep up the good work. And I hope you would be able to start writing task evaluation service soon. Fingers crossed!!

    Thank you

    • You are confusing noun and verb. All verbs will require “s” in the third person singular , except most modal verbs. This page is NOT relating to verbs at all. It is about nouns only. It is about uncountable nouns as explained in the title. Please do not confuse nouns and verbs. The word “advise” is a verb – not a noun. The noun is “advice” with a “c” and it is uncountable = a piece of advice. Again, please use your dictionary to check if you are using a verb or a noun. This is essential, basic English which will be tested by IELTS. Also note that some uncountable nouns can also be countable – this is always explained on this page.

      • Shailesh Johar says

        Yes Liz, you are right. Thank you for once again, appreciate your prompt response.

  16. John Brough says

    This is a great list! I came looking for a specific word which is not on your list (this after an argument with a friend). He argues that “concern” can not be counted, as it is a state of being. I argue it can be both. (And it can also be a verb). Any thoughts on this… concern …of mine?

  18. Natalya Yakunina says

    Dear Liz, I just came across your resource and I’m overwhelmed, so much help to people! Thank ever so much for sharing it with us! It will be great help in getting ready for IELTS. A question to #8 in Ex.2 on this page: “I think that childhood is one of the best times in a person’s live.” Is it surely “live”, not “life”? ‘Cause we can have an issue with that, too, especially in writing.

  19. Basanta Gaire says

    Hello Liz
    Thanks for such useful and high yielding videos for success in IELTS. I have just taken date for academic IELTS which is in December first week i.e. two weeks to go with. I have just started going through your guidance and practicing listening test at first. I am now comfortable with first 2 sections but still confused about the third and fourth sections of listening which has usually long questions, multiple choice questions with too long options which sometime take quite long time to understand the meaning. So i can’t manage time to read the long options, understand the meaning and listening the audio which does gives answer in indirect way. In such situation how can i manage time on such questions.
    Thank you

    • 1) You need to develop speed reading – this means a lot of practice specifically aimed at this skill. 2) You need to be able to spot keywords – this means a lot of practice at this as well.

  20. Hi Liz,
    Plz tell me. Is “difficult” countable or uncountable

  21. thank you,liz aunt .I had to submit a school project about countable and uncountable nouns by tomorrow , by your website I did my work very fast,thank you

  22. Hello liz
    Would you plz tell me why you have written (both) in front of some words?

  23. Rinkesh says

    What about the word “arts” in phrase “Faculty of arts”?
    “arts” in the above phrase has suffix “-s”. You listed “art” as an uncountable noun.

  24. Hi LIz,

    How about “experience”? Can we put “s” or not? Or it depends?

    • That’s right – it depends. On the whole, it is considered an uncountable word: You can gain experience from working with professional people. But if you are referring to different types of experiences, then it is plural. But don’t use words in any way that you are not 100% sure of – avoiding errors in writing is essential for IELTS.

  25. Izaz Raouf says

    Dear Liz thanks for your kind advise.
    I have one question regarding compound words such as (Post-office, grass-roots). We have to write it combine, or we have to put “-” or we have to just keep space between the two.

    • There are different types of compound nouns. Some use hyphens, some are one word together and some are two words separate. You can google a list of compound nouns to learn.

  26. Omer Bashadi says

    Hi Liz,

    As per my understanding, the answer to question 2 should be ‘are ‘ instead of ‘is’.. Please correct me.

    Regards,
    Omer Bashadi

    • You “are” if the noun is company because it is countable. But you use “is” when it is uncountable “company advertising”. You need to pay more attention to locating the noun – this noun contains two words – company advertising – and that noun is uncountable.

  27. Hi Liz
    Thank you for your great and comprehensible tips.
    Good luck

  28. Jason says

    Hi Liz,
    I got stuck at question 1. As you have mentioned, a lot of is uncountable so why you used “are” in A lot of wildlife are..?
    Thanks for your help!

    • “a lot of” is actually used for both countable and uncountable nouns. I’ve amended this page to show that.

  29. Fatimah says

    Hi liz thank you very much for this useful website
    This is my first time to take IELTS test my exam after 15 days how can I prepare my self I am really afraid and nervous I want to get band 6 as a final result your website is excellent but I do not know how to study in 15 days all these informations please help me
    Thank you

  30. Hi liz,
    How about sport and sports?

    • The word “sport” is countable = tennis is a sport.

      • Srikant Sharma says

        Hi Liz, hope you are doing well.

        You have mentioned ‘Sport’ as an ‘Uncountable Noun’ above, but here.

        • It is both countable and uncountable. In US English is can also be uncountable. I’ve put points above to highlight which words can be both.

  31. Why can’t we use “An” information? I saw it before.

  32. Ellora says

    Thanks 4 the excellent material♡

  33. Deyaa Ahmed says

    is vegetable countable or uncountable ?

    • It is countable.

    • Arijit says

      1. she is cooking my favourite dish by adding five vegetables…
      2. in the market I was bargaining for a vegetable…
      3. to prepare this recepi you will need to add two more vegetables…

  34. Sandra says

    I found that “art” is a countable world in the website of BBC.
    Is that the irregular situation?

    • “The arts” is not the same as art. These are two different types of words. If you talk about art, we can never talk about an art, but a piece of art. In that case, it is uncountable. But we can also talk about the arts, which relate to art, dance, singing etc. Some words can be both countable and uncountable. When students have a lower level of English, they learn the words are uncountable, such as cheese. But when students get to advanced level, they learn that these words can also be countable, for example cheeses.

  35. Hi Liz, thank you for this article. Please could you explain why on this website (oxforddictionaries blog) advice can be countable.

    http://blog.oxforddictionaries.com/2014/05/advise-advice/

    • I think you will find that this is for a different use of the word: “in business and legal use“. Words can have more than one meaning.

  36. hi liz,
    would you please tell me( song) is a countable/uncountable

  37. Hi LIz,

    We like your useful hints and tips :-)))

    Thank you 🙂

    Have a good day:-)

  38. Edwin Tomaneng says

    Hello, Ms Liz,

    I discovered your website just a couple of hours ago. I am happily learning from your easy-to-absorb tips, based on your replies to users’ questions.

    Yesterday, I had an interesting tussle with another English language user when he read this message I had sent a friend…”May you always be surrounded by your happinesses…” I was referring to her posted picture of herself, surrounded by her kids. I donned ‘poetic licence’ to defend myself but he kept on axing me…”Happiness is an uncountable!” and I kept on agreeing with him, “Yes, yes,…I know the blessed word is an uncountable! I agree with you, but won’t you leave me in peace with my affections for my friend!” or somesuch…Did I deserve his assault?

    • If the only important aspect of language is grammar, then your comments contained a mistake. However, language is to communicate thoughts and feelings – you might be marked wrong for grammar but it was a lovely comment. Grammar is not everything in life 🙂

  39. Hi Liz
    Can you please explain the difference between, much and a lot of when we’re referring to uncountable nouns. Since both are used for uncountable nouns cant we replace much with lot of and vice versa ?
    for example
    Much literature that students read at school is classical
    A lot of literature that students read at school is classical.
    It’s really confusing the usage of much and a lot of. For me both looks grammatically correct.

    • “a lot of” is used for both countable and uncountable nouns.

      • does this mean that ‘a lot of’ can replace them all ??

        • “a lot of” can be used with both countable and uncountable. However in IELTS you need to show a range of language so that is why you need to learn and use the full range.

  40. Ami Anup Shah says

    Hi Liz.
    Thanks a ton for the information through your site on countable and uncountable nouns.I have a doubt that – are scissors and clothes countable or uncountable nouns?
    If uncountable please explain why?

    • Yes, they are uncountable. There are no reasons why a word is uncountable, it’s just a list you need to learn.

  41. hadang says

    Hello, thank for your useful lession, but I’m so confused in your exercise given:
    There is a lot of company advertising during major sports events.
    I know that company is countable nouns so I think it is: there are many companies advertising…
    I hope you can help me to understand. thank you 🙂

    • It is a compound noun: company advertising. The main noun is advertising.

  42. Alex Neves says

    I have been looking for a website like yours, and I found it amazing! I’m starting to teach English, a thing that I have always wanted, so your website will help basically all the time.
    HAHA!!!

    Thanks!
    Greetings from Brasil!

  43. Hi Liz
    Thank you for the post.
    Could you take a bit of your time to answer this question;
    Are these countable nouns or not?
    -society
    -Government
    -ministery
    -Crime

    Thanks

  44. Hi Liz,

    First of all, I’d like to say a BIG THANK YOU to you since your lessons and all contents are so helpful for preparing IELTS test.
    I’ve been struggling with using proper prepositions. It’s so confusing… I’ve found that there are some certain words that ALWAYS comes after “the”, such as, THE public, THE tourism industry, THE government (this indicates general meaning of government, but Government without the means indicating Specific government..), etc.
    Would you clarify what words are following this rule (?) in English and provide me the list of those kinds of word please? Any kind of advice will be very helpful for me 🙂
    I really appreciate it in advance and thanks again for all your informative lessons!

  45. Guys, I understood that uncountable nouns can not be quantified. But I’m confused about some words on the list and the fact that would be wrong to refer them using “a” or “an”. For example: advice, coffee, help. Couldn’t I use the sentences below?
    Can you give me a coffee?
    I have an advice for you.

    • In this example, “a coffee” refers to “a cup of coffee”. It is a shortened version for speaking.
      All the best
      Liz

  46. Good Day!

    Thank you so much for this piece of information. ☺ I believe that I would achieve my desired band scores for each test with your help through this very helful site of yours. I just want to ask if the first example given on the former questions section which is the: “A lot of wildlife…” should be followed by “are” rather than “is”? I am somewhat confused with it because the following questions below that, the one in which we have to answer with is or are, have examples like this one: “There is a lot of…”, and “is” was used. Hehe. How are the two different from each other?
    Thank you again! 😊

    Nica

  47. Hello, I think your site too much (huge) helpful not only me but also others. I just want to know and need to help the following synonymes is correct for the given related word as below :
    *Quick increase / drecrease : – rapidly, – dramatatically, – significantly, – remarkably, -considerably, -markedly;
    *Slow increase/ drecrease: -slowly, -slightly, – minimally, -gradually, – steadily,
    Is that alright! thanks for concern.

  50. hello liz
    thanks for your website,I found it very usefull.

    now my doubt is ,we normally use “atrs and sports “is that correct ?because I believe these are also uncountable noun.

  51. Victoria says

    Hello, Liz!

    I have a question comcerning a certain words, that is “research”. The word is uncountable and is also mentioned in your list. However, I have seen it used with a verb in the plural form like “The research are…” or “Our reseach show that…”. So is it pluraria tantum or singularia tantum?

    Best regards,
    Victoria

  52. ThuyBui- FangCui says

    Hi Liz, I saw your lesson ” these=countable N; this =uncountable N”. I believe that ” this, that, these, those ” are all used for countable N. This, that: singular N; these, those: Plural N. Is it correct?

    • That’s right. This lesson is only pointing out the difference between plural countable and uncountable.
      Liz

  53. Hello Liz, I write you from Mexico city… love your site!
    I have a question, I’ve seen a lot of graphics about market share, trend share, stock trend, etc. Can those terms can be paraphrased?

    Thank you.

    Best regards!

    Hi Liz,

    I took the first IELTS test In Februaury this year and the scores were as folllowing:

    Listening – 7.5
    Reading – 7.5
    Speaking – 7.5
    Writing – 6.5
    Overall – 7.5

    I was surprised on what I had scored in writing and thus, decided to go for re-evaluation. Money and time spent went in vain as the scores remained unchanged. Consequently I paid for the second test and appeared in June. This time my score is:

    Listening – 8
    Reading – 8.5
    Speaking – 7.5
    Writing – 7.5
    Overall – 8

    I am extremely happy with my performance, yet I believe I could have scored more on speaking. Nevertheless I need 7 in each band and this score suffices my need to apply for immigration to Australia.

    Many suggested that I should attend to the IELTS crash course since getting a band up is not easy without proper guidance. This is when I searched for information online and started following your course on youtube. I had extensively watched all your videos which gave tips on writing task 1 & 2. Some of the tips contradicted with what other websites had to say but I had complete faith in you. I must confess that it was easiest and most exciting to learn from you.
    I can not thank you more, all credit goes to you and how wonderfully you have drafted all the content. My writing remained the way it was but the technique which I learnt from you helped me to score 7.5 in writing.
    Not to forget, I watched videos on speaking , listening & reading which in turn helped me achieving a better score than the previous one.

    Thanks a lot Liz, I am highly grateful to you.

    Cheers,

    • Well done with your score. Getting 7.5 in both speaking and writing is great. I’m really glad you were able to benefit from my lessons 🙂
      Good luck with your future plans and thanks for letting me know 🙂
      Liz

      I always get band score 8 or above in listening and reading but could never go above 6.5 in writing and speaking. I need 7 each to get my visa. I hope your lessons will help me get better results as i found them quite useful. I must say , I am impressed. Good job. Well done.

    Hi Liz,

    Actually I am little bit confused about Uncountable Noun and that is if I heard in Listening any kind of word ‘sentence’ or ‘sentences’ so I do not use “S” after that word. Another example in ‘Sport’ , ‘Vision’ etc.

    Regards,
    Mohammad Tanvir Hassan

    • I don’t understand. An uncountable noun never has an “s”. It can never be plural.
      Liz

    Wow~! uncountable noun is the most confusing grammar for me for a long time. It is so useful lesson…but among them I still not sure these are uncountable? such as business, room??? Thanks so much for your brilliant tips~!

    • Some words can be both countable and uncountable depending on how you use them or their meaning. I’ve included a list to help all students.
      All the best
      Liz
