HOMEWORK

Realice 10 ejemplos por cada tema tratado en esta separata y presente los mismos a su profesor a manera de exposición en clase.

COUNTABLE AND UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS

I. Countable Nouns

Los sustantivos constables son faciles de reconocer. Son cosas que podemos contar. For example: "pen". Nosotros podemos contar pens (lapiceros). Podemos tener uno, dos o más lapiceros. Aquí tenemos algunos sustantivos contables:

dog, cat, animal, man, person bottle, box, litre

coin, note, dollar

cup, plate, fork

table, chair, suitcase, bag

Countable nouns can be singular or plural:

My dog is playing. My dogs are hungry.

I.E. “SAN ILDEFONSO” SECOND GRADE – THIRD BIMESTRE PROF. L.E. FLORES UGAS

We can use the indefinite article a/an with countable nouns:

A dog is an animal.

When a countable noun is singular, we must use a word like a/the/my/this with it:

I want an orange. (not I want orange.) Where is my bottle? (not Where is bottle?)

When a countable noun is plural, we can use it alone:

I like oranges. Bottles can break.

We can use some and any with countable nouns:

I've got some dollars. Have you got any pens?

We can use a few and many with countable nouns:

I've got a few dollars. I haven't got many pens.

"People" is countable. "People" is the plural of "person". We can count people:

There is one person here.

There are three people here.II. Uncountable Nouns

Los sustantivos no constables son las sustancias, conceptos etc que no pueden ser divididos en otras partes. NO PODEMOS CONTARLOS. For example, no podemos contar "milk" (leche). Podemos contar "bottles of milk" (botellas de leche) or "litres of milk" (litros de leche), pero no podemos contar "milk" por si misma. Aqui tenemos elementos no contables:

music, art, love, happiness advice, information, news

furniture, luggage

rice, sugar, butter, water

electricity, gas, power

money, currency

We usually treat uncountable nouns as singular. We use a singular verb. For example:

This news is very important. Your luggage looks heavy.

We do not usually use the indefinite article a/an with uncountable nouns. We cannot say "an information" or "a music". But we can say a something of:

a piece of news a bottle of water

a grain of rice

We can use some and any with uncountable nouns:

I.E. “SAN ILDEFONSO” SECOND GRADE – THIRD BIMESTRE PROF. L.E. FLORES UGAS

I've got some money. Have you got any rice?

We can use a little and much with uncountable nouns:

I've got a little money. I haven't got much rice.

Uncountable nouns are also called "mass nouns".

TABLE

USING THERE IS / ARE WITH COUNTABLE and UNCOUNTABLE NOUNSCountable UncountableSingular Plural One form(+)There is a chair. There are some

chairs.There is some water

(-) There isn’t a table.

There aren’t any tables.

There isn’t any cheese.

(?) Is there a bathroom?

Are there any bathrooms?

Is there any coffee?

Conclusions from the table:• With countable nouns we have two forms: singular and plural and when we refer to uncountable nouns we only use one form.• When we use the singular form with countable nouns we use a/an and with plurals we use some/any.• With the uncountable nouns we do not use a/an and we can use some/any

• With countable nouns some/any means “an indefinite number”• With uncountable nouns some/any means “a portion of”

Conclusiones:

Como vemos cuando un sustantivo es contable hay dos formas: singular y plural pero con los no con

tables solo hay una forma. Nunca usen la forma plural cuando usen los no contables. También cabe resaltar que cuando usamos el some /any con los contables significa algunos/algunas o en negativo ningun pero cuando se usa con los no contables quiere decir algo de. Veamos:

There are some books on the table. (Hay algunos libros)There aren’t any books. (No hay ningun lbro) Ojo que en español se usa la forma singular de libro pero en inglés no.Are there any books? (Hay algún libro)There is milk. (Hay algo de leche)There isn’t any milk. (No hay nada de leche)Is there any milk? (Hay algo de leche?)
