Исчисляемые имена существительные («подлежащие исчислению») – это слова, обозначающие названия конкретных предметов и абстрактных понятий, которые можно посчитать. А раз их можно считать, они употребляются как в единственном, так и во множественном числе. Вот примеры исчисляемых имен существительных: table, picture, hour, holiday и т. д.
Употребляя такие слова в единственном числе, вы можете ставить перед ними неопределенный артикль a / an: a table, a picture, an hour.
В противовес предыдущим, неисчисляемыми именами существительными («не подлежащие исчислению») являются названия веществ, абстрактных понятий, которые посчитать нельзя. А, значит, и используются они только в единственном числе. Примеры: knowledge, silver, music, milk, water, happiness, furniture, advice и т. д. Эти имена существительные нельзя использовать с неопределенными артиклями a / an.
