Hi, We can't be expected to do your homework. Have a go at pointing out the nounds, then we'll explain any mistakes you might have made. Here are some guidlines: Common nouns are objects that can be noticed by our senses (stone, water) Proper nouns have their own names (people, places, films) Abstract nouns are things that can not be experienced directly by our senses (feelings, thoughts) Collective nouns are words that indicate there is a group of things (litter of pups, gaggle of geese)

A little rule of thumb that might be useful:
Take each word out the sentence separately and say it with the word "the" in front of it.
If it sounds OK with "the", it's probably a noun. If it sounds wrong with "the", it's probably not a noun.
the repetition - OK or wrong?
the does - OK or wrong?
the not - OK or wrong?
and so on.
It's not a f

The nouns(n) are:
- repetition (uncount n)
- lie (count n)
- truth (uncount n)
- repetition (uncount n)
- lie (count n)
- truth (uncount n)
