A Grammar Tip: Countable and Uncountable Nouns

Here is a short video to help sort out some of the confusion that arises with countable and uncountable nouns especially in relation to the articles that we should use with each type of noun.

Here are two handouts--one on countable and uncountable nouns, and one on articles--that can be found on the City College Writing Center Website:

Check out the other handouts on the Writing Center's website. I saw one on the thesis statement, and one on introductions: two topics that we will spend a lot of time on in the coming weeks.
