* Abstract nouns refer to ideas, concepts, qualities, or states of being, rather than tangible things.
Let's break down the words:
* Philosopher: This is a person, a concrete noun.
* Priest: This is also a person, a concrete noun.
* Melancholy: This is a feeling or mood, an abstract concept.
* Politics: This refers to the system of government, an abstract idea.
While politics is abstract, melancholy is a more direct representation of an internal state of being.
