Countables nouns - things that can be counted.
Uncountables nouns - things that cennot be counted.
Example
apple - countable
tree - countable
bus - countable
grass - uncountable
wine - uncountable
butter - uncountable
It is not possible to say one water, two flours etc. Uncountable nouns can be counted in two ways:
1. in litres, kilos etc. such as Could I have a kilo of butter?
2. by counting the containers that hold the uncountable noun.
