Noun Phrase
A noun phrase is a phrase which has a noun (or indefinite pronoun) as its head word, or which performs the same grammatical function as such a phrase. Noun phrases are very common cross-linguistically, and they may be the most frequently occurring phrase type.
Noun phrases often function as verb subjects and objects, as predicative expressions, and as the complements of prepositions or postpositions. Noun phrases can be embedded inside each other; for instance, the noun phrase some of his constituents contains the shorter noun phrase his constituents.

• Count noun is something we can count. It has a singular form and a plural form.
Example : two apples, one man, three cars, etc.
Count nouns can be pluralized when appropriate. See the section on Plurals for help with the proper formation of noun plurals.
We can use expressions such as
 many bottles
 few bottles
 a few bottles
These nouns, both singular and plural, can be preceded by the appropriate definite and indefinite articles — the with both singular and plural, a or an with singular count-nouns. Singular count nouns can be preceded by this and that and by every, each, either, and neither.
Plural count nouns can be preceded by these and those and by some, any, enough, and the zero article. The phrase number of is accompanied by count nouns.
Count nouns cannot be preceded by much. The phrase amount of is also a sure sign that you are not dealing with a count noun.


• Non-count noun is something we don’t count. It has no plural form.
We use quantifiers before non-count nouns:
Example : some fruit, meat, a lot of people, etc

Generally, these nouns cannot be pluralized. The non-count nouns of the second column (foodstuff) are pluralized when we use the word to express a "type". A non - count can be use to expressions such as :
- Much salt
- Little salt
- A little salt
These nouns can be preceded by some, any, enough, this, that, and much. Because they are not countable, these nouns cannot be preceded by these, those, every, each, either, and neither.
• A and an is count nouns they are things which can be counted. That means that there can be more than one of them. Also, when a count noun is singular and indefinite, the article “a/an” is often used with it. (The real meaning of “a” is “one”.)
Example : A boy, an elephant, a box, etc.

• The is definite article that used on a specific case or that have been mentioned previously, include: person, thing (object), or idea. Use the definite article before the countable noun (nouns can be calculated) or uncountable noun (nouns that can not be counted).

Example : The big car, the long shirt, the beautiful women, etc.

Function from definite article is used :
- as a noun in question has been mentioned in the previous sentence
- when specified by the situation in which something that is already clear
- as a noun and adjective characterized readers understand the object in question.
- when the noun is specified by word, phrase, or clause.
- as a noun is common knowledge that the reader is already familiar with what the author means.
- before the expression of time or direction / position
- before pluralized names (the names plural): family, nation, group of lakes, mountains, and islands
- After quantifier and preposition of to express the quantity (how much)
- before decade or century.
- before the noun that refers to something that is abstract

• Other is a concrete noun that can be observed with the senses.
Either countable noun (nouns that can be counted) or uncountable noun (nouns that can not be counted).

Example : We buy some sugar, milk, egg, flour and other.
I will go to my village with mother, father, sister, and other.

PASSIVE VOICE
