Noun:A noun is a word for a person, place, or thing. It might be helpful to think of a noun as a "naming word."

Explanation:

Types of Nouns

1)PROPER NOUN: A proper noun is the specific name given to a person, place, or thing (e.g., a personal name or a title). For example:India, chair etc.

2)COMMON NOUN:A common noun is the word used for something. In other words, it is the word that appears in a dictionary. For example:

car, man etc.

3)ABSTRACT NOUN;An abstract noun is something you cannot see or touch (e.g., "bravery," "hate," "joy").

4)COLLECTIVE NOUN:A collective noun is the word used for a group of people or things (e.g., "team," "group etc.

5)COUNTABLE NOUN;A countable noun is a noun that can be pluralized (e.g., "cat/cats," "argument/arguments," "device/devices")

6)NON-COUNTABLE NOUN:A non-countable noun (or mass noun as it's also known) is a noun without a plural form (e.g., ""music, food etc...)

Mia is sleeping on the mat.

proper noun and common noun done

Now we come to concrete noun a concrete noun is

Abstract noun

An abstract noun is a noun which refers to ideas, qualities, and conditions - things that cannot be seen or touched and things which have no physical reality, e.g. truth, danger, happiness, time, friendship, humour.

Collective nouns

Collective nouns refer to groups of people or things, e.g. audience, family, government, team, jury. In American English, most collective nouns are treated as singular, with a singular verb:

The whole family was at the table.

In British English, the preceding sentence would be correct, but it would also be correct to treat the collective noun as a plural, with a plural verb:

The whole family were at the table.

Count and mass nouns

Nouns can be either countable or uncountable. Countable nouns (or count nouns) are those that refer to something that can be counted. Uncountable nouns (or mass nouns) do not typically refer to things that can be counted and so they do not regularly have a plural form.

for example :

Would you like some coffee?=== uncountable because it's referring to the drink in general.

He ordered a coffee.===countable, because it's referring to a cup of coffee.
