Answer:
- a collective noun is a collection of things taken as a whole.
- Most collective nouns in everyday speech are not specific to one kind of thing, such as the word "group", which can be applied to people ("a group of people") or dogs ("a group of dogs") or other things.
- a singular noun, such as ‘committee’ or ‘team’, that refers to a group of people, animals or things and, in British English, can be used with either a singular or a plural verb
