A proper noun is the name of a specific person, place, or thing.
Most proper nouns are concrete nouns, however abstract nouns can function as proper nouns; for example:
- The Declaration of Independence ('independence' is an abstract noun)
- "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy (both 'war' and 'peace' are abstract nouns)
- Truth or Consequences, New Mexico (both 'truth' and 'consequences' are abstract nouns)
- "Yesterday" by The Beatles ('yesterday' is an abstract noun)
