noun
- A noun describing something that cannot be counted, usually with no plural form and used without the indefinite article. Examples: information, money, soap. In contrast, dollar and euro are examples of count nouns. Some nouns, such as wine, can be either mass nouns or count nouns: as a mass noun, wine refers to wine in general; as a count noun (with plural wines) wine refers to a variety of wine.<ref name="OED-def">The Oxford English Dictionary Second Edition</ref>
