What does the word ,  collection,  mean ?   💭💭         

Well, you're right  if you 've thought of the word,  group !  

  So, when we wish to  give  a  name  to a group or collection of people, animals , things or ideas, we call it a COLLECTIVE NOUN


Let's  take a good look at the images below showing a collection of  people, animals and things .


 
Words   like    team,  army,  gang, gaggle, set, crowd etc  are names of a collection of persons  or things taken together  and spoken  as ONE WHOLE!  


NOTE!!       Collective nouns  may appear to be common nouns  but they are slightly different from the ordinary common nouns. They stand  for /represent a collection. 



TASK  1   :-     C.W       (To be done in continuation with  the previous  day's work  in your English Language exercise book) 👇
  Note down the work as shown below👇with a new date.
