Variable nouns

Variable nouns

Variable nouns are nouns which combine the behaviour of count and uncount nouns. They are like count nouns when they refer to an instance or more than one instance of something, e.g. an injustice; injustices, or to individual members of a class, e.g. a cake; cakes. Otherwise they behave like uncount nouns, referring to a substance or thing in more general terms.
These nouns are labelled N-VAR in the Collins Cobuild English Dictionary.
