A collective noun is a word for a group of nouns for people or things. For example:
- a crew of workers, a team of players, a crowd of onlookers, a queue of customers
- a herd of cattle, a bouquet of flowers, a clutch of eggs, a row of houses
A non-count (mass) noun are usually words for substances, concepts, etc. that we cannot divide into separate elements. We cannot "count" them. For example, we cannot count "milk". We can count "bottles of milk" or "liters of milk", but we cannot count "milk" itself. Some examples are:
- a quart of milk
- a grain of rice
- a cup of sugar
- a piece of furniture
- some news
- some money
- a glass of water
- a glass of wine
Some non-count nouns have plural forms for 'types of', such as:
- A choice of two wines were served.
- The rices used for this dish are basmati or long grain.
