Answer 2

Using (P) for proper, (C) for common, (CO) for collective and (A) for abstract.

• Proper Noun - A proper noun is a specific (i.e., not generic) name for a particular person, place, or thing. Proper nouns are always capitalized in English, no matter where they fall in a sentence.

• Common Noun - a noun that names a class of persons or things or any individual of a class and that may occur with a limiting modifier.

• Collective noun - A collective noun is a naming word used to refer to a group or number of animals, people or things.

• Abstract nouns - Abstract nouns are things like ideas, concepts, feelings, and traits. For example, fear is an abstract noun that refers to a feeling.
