What is a countable noun?

A countable noun is a type of noun that can be counted and has both a singular and plural form. These nouns refer to objects, people, or things that can be quantified or enumerated. Countable nouns can be preceded by a determiner (such as "a," "an," or "the") and can be used with numbers to indicate quantity. Examples of countable nouns include "book" (one book, two books), "cat" (one cat, three cats), and "chair" (one chair, five chairs).
