A mass (uncountable) noun is a word for something that you cannot count, such as substances, concepts, and gerunds. Some examples are rice, sand, information, advice, electricity, swimming.
Some mass nouns for substances reserve the use of the plural form for 'types of' or kinds of' only; for example:
- the selection of teas are black, green, or jasmine
- a menu of rices including white, wild, and basmatti
- the paints needed are flat for the walls and enamel for the trim
Some abstract nouns can be singular or plural; for example:
- idea, ideas
- feeling, feelings
- war, wars
Some abstract nouns are also mass nouns, expressed in units of or amounts, for example:
- some advice, a little advice
- a piece of news, a lot of news
- acts of courage, great courage
