Question

Hi,Help me with this.1. I sometimes see those dedignated as uncountables in the dictionary that are mark with something like this, "a N," and I want to ask you whether that means an uncountable noun can accompany the indefinite article "a" and is it suppose to be a rare case? is the sentence below one of those cases?It is way in which set aside a quite time and place.  (Is the word "time" countable or uncountable?)2. Can I put two "THEs" and will that  be OK? We recommend (the??) early evening and (the??) late evening.

It is way in which set aside a quite time and place. (Is the word "time" countable or uncountable?)

Maybe you've already known, Cambridge Dictionaries often can answer countable- or- uncountable questions best:

while means period (a particular period of seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, etc. for which something has been happening, or which is needed for something, or which is available for something, ) time is either singular or uncountable.

(maybe others could generalize some principles...........
