Count nouns or countable nouns are common nouns that can take a plural, can combine with numerals or counting quantifiers (e.g., one, two, several, every, most), and can take an indefinite article such as a or an (in languages which have such articles). Examples of count nouns are chair, nose, and occasion. Mass nouns or uncountable (or non-count) nouns differ from count nouns in precisely that respect: they cannot take plurals or combine with number words or the above type of quantifiers. For example, it is not possible to refer to a furniture or three furnitures. This is true even though the pieces of furniture comprising furniture could be counted. Thus the distinction between mass and count nouns should not be made in terms of what sorts of things the nouns refer to, but rather in terms of how the nouns present these entities.Many nouns have both countable and uncountable uses; for example, soda is countable in "give me three sodas", but uncountable in "he likes soda". Collective nouns are nouns that – even when they are inflected for the singular – refer to groups consisting of more than one individual or entity. Examples include committee, government, and police. In English these nouns may be followed by a singular or a plural verb and referred to by a singular or plural pronoun, the singular being generally preferred when referring to the body as a unit and the plural often being preferred

The nouns in the sentence are: Jeremy, sister, rose; the abstract noun is birthday.
The complete predicate is the verb phrase, meaning the main verb, any auxiliary verb(s), and the verb's complement. Auxiliary verbs are modal auxiliaries (such as "may, must, could") and the verbs "have, be, do" used with lexical verbs - NOT "be" on its own. A complement is anything required by the verb: direct objects, indirect objects, and prepositional arguments such as "(hit) by John" or "(ran) down the hill" or "(opened) with a key", but NOT "scene-setting" adverbials such as "in the morning" or purpose or manner ones such as "to pass the course" or "very quickly". So, in the sentence John gave the book to his brother for his birthday, "gave the book to his brother" is the complete predicate. "John" is the subject, and "for his birthday" is an adverbial. To test whether prepositional phrases are in the complement, try moving them to the front of the sentence. If you can, they are NOT in the complement: For his birthday, John gave a book to his brother. To his brother, John gave a book for his birthday. The second sentence is only barely possible. The first one, however, is fine.

He started because his brother gave him a skateboard for his birthday
"mother", "card", and "birthday" are all nouns; "gave" is a verb in its simple past tense, "you" and "your" are pronouns, the latter one in its possessive case and therefore functioning as an adjective; "a" is an article; and "for" is a preposition.
