A common noun is a word for a person, a place, a thing. A noun functions as the subject of a sentence or a clause, and as the object of a verb or a preposition. Example functions for common nouns:

subject of the sentence: My homework is done.

subject of a clause: The cookies that mommade are for the bake sale.

object of the verb: I bought new shoes today.

object of a preposition: We ate our lunch in the park.
