COUNTABLE AND UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS

En inglés los nombres se clasifican en : contables e incontables.

Los nombres contables son una unidad que se puede contabilizar. Normalmente se pueden poner en plural. Ejemplo: a car (sg) / two cars ( pl) 

Los nombres incontables pertenecen a un grupo, masa o nombre colectivo. No se pueden contar porque son demasiado pequeños y pertenecen a la categoría de: líquidos, partículas, gases, un concepto o actividad. Ejemplo: money ---has no plural form= a lot of money, some money.
