Is team an abstract noun

Answer 1

Yes, the noun team is an abstract noun; the people that make up a team are concrete, the group as a team is a concept.

---

No. A team, whether a group of people or of horses, is a concrete, collective noun for a group.

Answer 2

noun 'team' is a common noun, a general word for two or more people or animals performing a task or a competition; a word for any team of any kind.

A proper noun is the name or title of a specific person, place or thing. A proper noun for team would be the name of a specific team, such as the Green Bay Packers, the Edmonton Oilers, or Manchester United.

Answer 3

An abstract noun is a type of noun that refers to something a person cannot physically interact with. A noun is a person, place or thing. However, in many cases, the 'thing' might be an intangible concept - which means it is an abstract form of noun, e.g. faith, belief, serenity, peace, courage, curiosity. In this instance, abstract means to exist apart from concrete existence. A noun that is abstract is an aspect, concept, idea, experience, state of being, trait, quality, feeling, or other entity that cannot be experienced with the five senses.

One other well-known proposal is that an object is abstract if, and only if, it lacks a location in space. Thus teamwork would be abstract because it has no spatial location nor can it be experienced by any of the five senses.

Answer 4

It is definitely a noun, but dictionaries do not agree on whether it is an adjective or a noun adjunct in uses such as "team spirit" or "team effort."

The word team is a collective noun for a group (also historically, a group of work animals such as horses and mules).
