Explanation:

• In English alphabet, an abstract noun is a noun or noun expression that names an idea, event, quality, or conception.
• For example, courage, freedom, progress, love, tolerance, excellence, and fellowship.
• An abstract noun names commodity that can not be physically touched.
• Differ that with a concrete noun.
• Abstract nouns represent impalpable ideas — effects you can not perceive with the five main senses.
• Words like love, time, beauty, and wisdom are all abstract nouns because you can not touch them or see them.
