Count nouns are word for things that can be singular or plural. Examples of count nouns are:

  • apple -> apples
  • boat -> boats
  • cow -> cows
  • danger -> dangers
  • elevator -> elevators

Non-count nouns are words that aren't counted; they're often words for substances or concepts. Some examples are:

  • rice
  • wine
  • economics

Units of non-count nouns are expressed in 'units of'; for example, a grain of rice, a glass of wine, a course in economics.

The plural form for non-count nous is reserved for 'types of' or 'kinds of' such a types of rices are long grain and brown; kinds of wines are rose or champagne; and government economics or international economics.
