An abstract noun is a noun that represents a quality or an attribute. Unlike other nouns, abstract nouns can only be felt and not perceived by other senses. For example, love. Abstract nouns are of 2 types -- Attributive nouns and Verbal nouns.
1) Attributive nouns: Refer to qualities, attributes or characteristics. Made from adjectives and nouns. For example, Poverty (made from poor)
2) Verbal nouns: Made by adding inflections such as -ing and -er. For example, examiner (from examine)
