Is the word flight an abstract noun?

Yes, "flight" can be an abstract noun depending on how it's used.

Here's why:

* Concrete "flight": When "flight" refers to the physical act of flying, it describes a specific action or movement. In this case, it's not abstract, as it refers to something tangible.

* Example: "The bird took flight."

* Abstract "flight": When "flight" refers to a more general concept or idea, like the act of escaping, soaring, or the journey itself, it becomes abstract. It's not something you can touch or see directly.

* Example: "The prisoner's flight to freedom was daring."

* Example: "The flight of fancy took her to distant lands."

So, whether "flight" is abstract or concrete depends on the context.
