A noun is a word that names a person, animal, place, or thing.
Some nouns name general people, animals, places, and things, like police officer, chicken, city, and suitcase.
A noun can also be a specific name, like Lu-Lu. This type of noun always begins with a capital letter.
Some nouns name things you can’t see, hear, smell, taste, or touch. Excitement, charm, and life are nouns that name feelings and ideas.
How do you know if a word is a noun? Try putting a, an, or the in front of the word and using it in a sentence. Does it make sense? The chicken lived
on a farm makes sense. Chicken and farm are both nouns.
