SUPER SIZE ME -Documentary

STAGE 4 -GRAMMAR SECTION

Lesson 1: Countable and Uncountable Nouns.

  • What is a Noun?
A noun is a word that identifies a person, animal, place, thing, or idea.

We can classify nouns into countable or uncountable.


Countable nouns can take singular or plural form.

-A carrot  (singular)        -Four carrots  (plural)
-A peach  (singular)       - Two peaches (plural)
Uncountable nouns take always singular form.

Milk          Cheese      Sugar     Cereal       Rice         Honey         Flour       Salt         

Food Classification:
  • Singular to Plural Form
Most singular nouns are made plural by simply putting an -s at the end. However, there are many different rules regarding pluralization depending on what letter a noun ends in. Irregular nouns do not follow plural noun rules, so they must be memorized or looked up in the dictionary.
  • QUANTIFIERS
A quantifier is a word or phrase which is used before a noun to indicate the amount or quantity.

PRACTICE 1: Choose the appropriate quantifier: a, an, some, any, much, many, a lot of.


Lesson 2:  How many / How much?

We ask  HOW MANY and HOW MUCH  when we want to know the quantity or amount of something.

  • HOW MANY + PLURAL COUNTABLE NOUN
  • HOW MUCH + UNCOUNTABLE NOUN






Lesson 3:  There is / There are
We use there is and there are to say that something exists (or doesn’t exist).
