The document discusses two types of nouns: concrete nouns and abstract nouns. Concrete nouns refer to people, places, or things that can be detected by the senses, while abstract nouns refer to more abstract concepts that cannot be detected by physical senses, such as emotions or ideas. The document then provides examples of concrete and abstract nouns and instructs the reader to stand up or sit down depending on whether the noun shown is concrete or abstract.

Most of these nouns—like the tree in your

can be seen, heard, tasted, touched, or
smelled.
These are called CONCRETE NOUNS.

can’t detect with your senses, such as
beauty or trouble.
These are called ABSTRACT NOUNS.
