people who use a credit card to buy one item are thoughtless the thoughtful lady let the boy with an apple go ahead of her in the Express line read and repeat you count and non-count nouns well now let's review count and non-count nouns and then we'll look at how to change non count nouns into count nouns let's start with count nouns please have a look at these sentences we bought five ripe apples there are six aisles in that grocery store Craig bought a magazine at the grocery store how many oranges did Frank buy count nouns are nouns that can be counted they can be singular or they can be plural an indefinite article a or n can come before a count noun and to ask a question about a count noun we use the sentence how many let's practice what did you buy the last time you went to a grocery store Rosa I bought ten onions my mother was going to make soup very good Monica what did you want to buy I wanted to buy a new chair for the balcony there are red sheep at the grocer's though I bought one there too Luis how many times did you go to the grocery store last month I didn't go a single time I had grocery stores most men hate shopping thank you everyone and now let's look at non count nouns please take a look at these sentences Carrie bought some sugar at the store my friend bought some rice at the same store the noise at that grocery store is terrible I like that store because they play music non count nouns are nouns that cannot be counted you cannot place an indefinite article or n before a non-count noun you can place the definite article the' before a non-count now because it's specific non count nouns are usually singular and ask a question about non-count noun we use how much how many count nouns how much non count nouns let's practice what can you buy in the deli section Monica you can buy some meat and some cheese very good and what can you buy in the produce department Rosa you can buy some fruit excellent how much sugar did you buy the last time you were in a grocery store Luis I didn't buy any sugar I didn't buy any cooler I had grocery stores okay thank you thank you now it's time to look and listen look and listen there are 70 shopping carts in this grocery store there is a children's seat in each cart I think the orange juice is an aisle 6 the bread at that market is not very good read and repeat now let's see how we can use count nouns and non-count nouns together have a look at these examples je bought a bag of sugar at the grocery store he also bought a bar of soap they don't have any bottles of ketchup at the market Henry didn't need a bunch of bananas well non-count nouns include ideas for example history and knowledge is ideas they also include emotions emotions for example love-hate activities tennis things you can measure things you can measure for example gasoline you can measure gasoline you can measure rice and things you can group together for example you can group together furniture chairs sofa stools furniture so ideas history knowledge emotions love hate for example activities such as tennis things you can measure gasoline rice and things you can group together for example furniture now we can give specific amounts to either count nouns or non count nouns by using certain units of measurement units of measurement let's have a look at some units of measurement now we have a bag we can use a bag with sugar which is non-count or a bag of potatoes and potato chips which are countable we have a bar a bar of candy uncountable or a bar of hard soap also uncountable next we have a bottle of detergent a bottle of soda a bottle of juice a box of cereal or a box of detergent a bunch usually fruit a bunch of bananas a bunch of grapes a can of soup beans tuna and soda a can is also like a 10 sometimes called a 10 or a can a carton a carton of eggs milk or cigarettes a carton is like a box we can have a cup a tablespoon or a teaspoon we use this with liquid and dry ingredients okay next we have a dozen usually just four eggs but another example is loaves of bread a dozen loaves of bread or a dozen eggs a gallon a pint or a quart of liquids for example milk or something like ice cream a jar of mayonnaise or jam or a jar of mustard loaf of bread so not breads but one loaf of bread or two loaves of bread next we have a package a package of potato chips or a package of spaghetti a piece a piece of cake a piece of pie or a piece of meat a pound or a kilo a pound of meat or kilo of meat and a pound or kilo of cheese a roll of paper towels or a roll of toilet paper a stick of butter and finally a tube of toothpaste now these units of measurement I use this way you have the unit of measurement plus of plus the count or non count noun now not a dozen does not have of so a dozen whoops dozen eggs is not dozen of eggs just a dozen eggs so unit of measurement of count non count noun for example a bag of potato chips or a bag of sugar let's practice Lois what did your mother by the last time she went to a grocery store I don't know maybe she bought two loaves of bread okay thank you what did you buy last time Monica I bought four bottles of Fanta and two cartons of milk my love milk what did you buy Rosa I bought a jar of rosary jam two sticks of butter and a loaf of bread I love toast with butter and jam that's good thank you everybody now it's time for a piece of look and listen look and listen you can't buy cartons of cigarettes in that store please buy a carton of ice cream for the party we need some rolls of paper towels from the store Helen purchased a half dozen eggs at the market read and repeat participles now let's talk about participles please have a look at these examples Mike thanks shopping is boring he feels bored it is a confusing supermarket they are confused shoppers the present participle is formed this way the present participle is the simple form simple form of the verb plus I and J and the past participle is formed by the simple form plus Edie some participles can be used as adjectives and examples of these adjectives are present participle boring past bored present interesting past interested present frustrating past frustrated present confusing past confused present amusing past amused present exciting past excited and present surprising past surprised well let's look at when they are used the present participle expresses how the subject affects someone or something the first sentence expresses the effect shopping has on Mike present participle conveys an active meaning the noun it modifies does something so Mike thinks shopping is boring this means let's put on the board Mike thinks shopping is boring so shopping is boring this means shopping bores Mike in the third sentence the noun supermarket does something it confuses thus it is described as a confusing supermarket it is a confusing supermarket this means the supermarket confuses confuses people shall we say the past participle expresses how the subject feels about someone or something in the second sentence what Mike thinks about shopping is expressed the past participle conveys a passive meaning we say he feels bored we think of it as like a passive sentence he feels bored by shopping he feels bored it's the same as he feels bored by shopping or he feels bored with shopping it's the same in the fourth sentence the shoppers are confused by something and they are described as confused shoppers so we write they are confused shoppers this is the same as they are confused by something actually it's in the situation they are confused by the supermarket so we have they are confused shoppers this is the same as they are confused by or confused with the supermarket well let's practice do you understand Monica I think so it's a little confusing so you are confused then yeah it shows what you feel about a subject it's confusing so you use the present participle good Louis what do you think about shopping at the grocery store I hate it it's boring I'm bored to death very good Monica what about you it's interesting when I have money when I have a lot of money everything interests me me too and what about you Rosa I
