Abstract nouns are word for things that your five senses cannot detect. You can't see them, hear them, smell them, taste them, or touch them. They are words for things that you know, learn, think, understand, or feel emotionally.

Example sentences (with abstract noun in bold):

  • I have no excuse but laziness, not a good excuse but an honest one.
  • Everyone heard about his grievance over shift assignments.
  • Her jealousy leads her to do things that cause her regret.
  • What luck, when I gave up my seat on the flight, they changed my ticket to first class.
  • Yes, honesty is the best policy if you want people to believe in you.
