Explanation:

Common nouns name any person, place, thing, or idea. They are not capitalized unless they come at the beginning of a sentence.

Proper nouns are the names of specific people, places, things, or ideas.

Abstract nouns are words that name things that are not concrete. Your five physical senses cannot detect an abstract noun – you can't see it, smell it, taste it, hear it, or touch it.

Collective nouns are nouns that describe a group, for example: class, family, herd, couple. These can also be called group nouns. There are about 200 collective nouns in English.\
