đ 1. Common Noun
A Common Noun is a general name for a person, place, animal, or thing. It doesn't name a specific individual (like "Dhaka" or "Rahim"), but rather the category they belong to.
Examples: boy, city, bird, book, flower, student.
Key Rule: Common nouns are usually not capitalized unless they start a sentence.
đ¤ 2. Collective Noun
A Collective Noun is a word used to represent a group of people, animals, or things as a single unit. It describes a collection of common nouns.
Examples: * A class of students.
A flock of birds.
A team of players.
A bouquet of flowers.
