          You have learnt that nouns can be counted. But some nouns cannot be counted. Such

          nouns are called uncountable nouns. For example,















                           porridge                                        milk
















                             bread                                        wood

          But we can make some uncountable nouns countable by adding some phrases to the
          uncountable nouns. For example,

          •  Papa went with a basket of wood.


          •  Nana carried a warm pitcher of milk.

          •  I carried a pail of hot porridge.

          •  We had a slice of bread and an apple for breakfast.
