--description--

Countable nouns are things you can count. They can be one, two, three, or more. You can use numbers, and quantifiers such as many, a few or several to describe countable nouns. For example, apple: you can have one apple, two apples or many apples.

Uncountable nouns are things you cannot count one by one. They usually do not change to show more than one. You don't use numbers directly, instead, use quantifiers like much, a little, some to describe uncountable nouns. For example, water: you cannot say one water or two waters. You can say much water, some water.
