Singular Noun

A singular noun is nothing but a form of a noun which only represents a singular person, place, idea, or thing. It has a single bond with the adjectives or verbs or other parts of speech present in a sentence followed by that noun.

While writing a singular noun, sometimes it is most common to write a noun along with an article “a, an” which is also used to represent an individual thing.

Examples of Singular Noun

Peoples: man, woman, child, person, father
Animals: bird, cat, dog, mouse, camel
Things: table, chair, book, car, toy, mobile
