Question

Select the abstract noun from the options given.

• A. Prosperity
• B. Packet
• C. Garden
• D. Angel

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Prosperity

Nouns are naming words. Abstract nouns are the nouns that can't be seen and touched. For example: anger, truth, danger etc.

Option B - 'Packet' is a container made of a paper or cardboard to store and keep things. A packet can be seen and touched. Hence, option B is incorrect.

Option C - 'Garden' is a piece of land used to grow flowers and vegetables, it can be seen and touched. Hence, option C is incorrect.

Option D - 'Angel' is a virtuous person who is very good to us. We can see and touch an angel (person). Hence, option D is incorrect.

Option A - 'Prosperity' is a state of being prosperous (wealthy) which can be experienced and not be seen and touched. Hence, we can say that 'prosperity' is an abstract noun. Thus option A is the correct answer.
