Ever since you first toddled into a school house DOOR, your teachers have been telling you that a noun is a person, place or thing. Unfortunately, some erudite linguists have demonstrated that such a definition is ENTIRELY too simple. But since we aren�t linguists, we will lock those fellows in the closet (metaphorically speaking, of COURSE) and hang on to the definition we know: A noun is a person place or thing. Remember1. A noun is a PART of speech.2. Subjects and objects are parts of a sentence.3. Nouns FUNCTION as subjects or objects.4. Therefore: Nouns = subjects or objects
