Is belief an abstract or concrete noun?

Belief is an abstract noun.

Abstract nouns refer to ideas, concepts, qualities, or feelings that cannot be touched or seen.

Here's why belief is considered abstract:

* Intangible: Belief is a mental state or conviction that cannot be physically perceived.

* Conceptual: It represents an idea or thought about something, rather than a tangible object.

* Subjective: Beliefs can vary from person to person and are influenced by individual experiences and perspectives.

Examples of abstract nouns:

* Love

* Happiness

* Justice

* Freedom

* Hope

* Courage

In contrast, concrete nouns refer to things that can be physically perceived, such as:

* Book

* Table

* Tree

* Dog

* Water

* Sun
