Bob161 Posted February 22, 2010 at 01:57 AM Report Posted February 22, 2010 at 01:57 AM I'm trying to keep a journal of the words I'm learning grouped loosely by word type (noun, verb, number, pronoun, etc). I tried looking this up on the MDBG Dictionary, but it didn't have a specific entry for the word "noun". It had two plural markers and two "nominal classifiers." Quote
