Question : Identify the type of the underlined noun.
Ashu has gained a lot of wisdom from his experience.
Option 1: Collective
Option 2: Common
Option 3: Material
Option 4: Abstract
Correct Answer: Abstract
Solution : The correct answer is option 4
Explanation:
- Collective Noun: A collective noun is a group of things that are referred to collectively.
- Common Noun: A noun that refers to a group of things or a concept rather than a specific person.
- Material Noun: The term "material noun" refers to a material or substance, such as silver, gold, iron, cotton, diamond, and plastic, from which things are made.
- Abstract Noun: A noun that designates a concept, property, or state as opposed to a physical thing.
- The ability to recognize inner qualities and relationships is referred to as wisdom. Since it is a quality, none of our senses can help us understand it.
Thus, "wisdom" (underlined) is a "abstract noun."
