What is the collective noun for a group of nuns?

There isn't a single, universally accepted collective noun for a group of nuns. However, some options that are used include:

* A convent (This is the most common and straightforward option, as it refers to the place where nuns live and work)

* A sisterhood (This emphasizes the bond and community among nuns)

* A bevy (This is a less common option, but it suggests a group of women, which can be applied to nuns)

Ultimately, the choice of collective noun depends on the context and the desired emphasis.
