Countable Uncountable

Index of Daily Doses: http://DailyDoseOfEnglish.com

Countable and uncountable nouns cause plenty of problems for students. In this video I hope to quickly show how we deal with them.

The English Social Network is a Facebook-type site that allows English language learners to meet like-minded people and share their thoughts and ideas about English.

Social networks exist to give everyone the chance to participate and share their knowledge and ideas for the benefit of others.

The English Social Network is dedicated to bringing you daily videos giving common expressions in English. It has a lot of dynamic, fast-changing content that will keep you interested and help you to continually develop your English skills.

I encourage students to submit their comments by video, too. This way students can practice their spoken English and make use of the new technology. This is an exciting new way of learning English.

@Linguaspectrum : Ah yes now I understand it. You didn't say that 'some' can only be used in combination with countable nouns. It was my erroneous interpretation which made me think that.

[Linguaspectrum]

@Leviwosc I think you should watch he video again. Particularly around 01:15.

[Leviwosc]

water, is uncountable. Though people tend to say: 'some water'. For example: "I need some water and soap to clean the toilet" or "Bring me some water please, my dog is thirsty". Why can I use 'some' here although 'water' is an uncountable noun.
