During the first week of this unit, I asked viewers of these videos, “What strategies do you follow for identifying count and noncount nouns?” I have two challenges for you.

First, take some time now to read the comments at the bottom of the webpage for that video. Here is a link to that webpage: What are count and noncount nouns? As you read the comments, try to find strategies that will help you to identify count and noncount nouns.

Second, add a comment to the web page for this video. Write about one or more strategies that you found. Be sure to include the name of the original person who suggested that strategy.
