        Countable nouns are for things that we can count using numbers. They have singular and plural form
        
        The singular form can use the determiner "a" or "an". If you want to ask about the quantity of a countable noun, ask "How many?" combined with the countable plural noun.

    - - are those that cannot be counted and, therefore, do not have plural. In this group we generally include all abstract substances, materials and qualities.
        
        for example :Milk, sugar, money, wood, gold, happiness, poverty
        
        We cannot use a / an with these nouns.
        
        To express a quantity of an uncountable noun, use a word or expression such as some, a lot of, much, a bit of, a great deal of (some, a lot, a little)
        
        or use an exact measurement such as a cup of , a bag of, 1 kg of, 1 liter of, a handful of, a pinch of, an hour of, a day of
        
        If you want to ask about the quantity of an uncountable noun, ask "How much?" "How much?"
