Precis writing is summarizing the text in brief by keeping the key details intact without any personal ideas or jargons. While writing precisely, certain rules must be followed to cover only important aspect in the text.

To identify a noun in a sentence, students must apply the below rules:

  • Look for words that name a person, place, thing, or idea.
  • Find the subject or verb to spot connected nouns.
    Example: She is writing – “She” is a noun, “is writing” is the verb.
  • Check for articles (a, an, the) – they usually come before nouns.
    Example: The competition was held – “competition” is a noun.
  • Look for capitalized words – they might be proper nouns.
    Example: Shakespeare wrote books – “Shakespeare” is a noun.
  • Words following “a lot, ” “some, ” or specific numbers are often nouns.
    Example: Some pencils are on the table – “pencils"

A collective noun is a word given to group of people, things or animals. Example: herd, family, flock, government and so forth.

These nouns are usually treated as a singular noun even though it refers to a group of animal, thing or people.

Check some of the rules of nouns below:

  1. Some nouns, while singular in meaning, are always treated as plural and take plural verbs.
  2. Certain nouns always appear in the plural form and require plural verbs.
  3. When nouns refer to measurements (such as weight, length, time, or money), and are preceded by a specific number, their form remains unchanged.
  4. Abstract or uncountable nouns always take singular verbs.
  5. Collective nouns may take either singular or plural verbs, depending on whether the group is seen as a single unit or as individuals.

If the statement is a universal truth or still relevant, verbs won't change typically. For example, the direct speech: "Water boils at 100 degrees," said the professor, and in the indirect speech: The professor said that water boils at 100 degrees. Being a fact, "boils" stays present. This keeps truths that are timeless or current—makes sense.

Commands using the "to" verb structure shift to indirect speech: The direct speech is "Sit down!" shouted Dad. In the indirect speech version: Dad told me to sit down. When converting to indirect speech, the nature of the command softens, quotation marks disappear, and either "told" or "ordered" matches the strength of the command. Requests typically use the same to structure: "Please wait," translates to: He asked me to wait.
