(10) The canonical countable entity for 3- and 4-year-old children is a discrete physical object.
(11) Cells furnished tryptone (Difco) and glycerol just before aerosolization increased (in viable numbers and countable cells) almost twofold within 1 to 2 h after becoming airborne, whereas cells not furnished additional tryptone decreased in viable numbers at a faster rate than the number of particles removed by gravitational settling.
(12) This paper deals with isolated, countable items, often termed particles, in three-dimensional space.
(13) Epidemiologists, who by themselves work only with countable phenomena of the macro-world, must collaborate with specialists in subjects below the macro-level if they wish to improve the explanatory power and validity of their results.
(14) When heavily stained with Giemsa, the colonies of transformed cells were grossly visible and countable.
(15) So it is necessary to use always two inoculations for all specimens and the resistance is calculated on the medium inoculated with the same doses, for that, colonies on the control must be countable and suitable number that is 50-300.

(17) Lymphoma 6C3HED-OG cells, known from previous work to be susceptible to the effects of guinea pig serum in vivo and dependent upon extrinsic asparagine for protein synthesis and growth in vitro, remained for the most part morphologically intact and countable in the electronic cell counter following exposures of 1 and 2 hr to the effects of heated (56 degrees C, 30 min) guinea pig serum injected into the peritoneal cavities of mice in which the lymphoma cells were growing rapidly; after exposures of 4 and 6 hr the bulk of the -OG cells remained still intact and countable in the cell counter, though by this time a small proportion of them (5 to 12%) proved stainable with eosin in wet preparations) hence were presumably nonviable.
(18) With a 90-min invasion time, the invasive potential of a strain was reflected by the multiplicity of infection needed to produce countable wells.

Noun
Definition:
(n.) A word used as the designation or appellation of a creature or thing, existing in fact or in thought; a substantive.
(2) Word reading times increased with the cumulative number of new-argument nouns at clause boundaries (as well as at sentence boundaries).
(3) In two lateralized tachistoscopic experiments, we presented (i) pairs of nouns with close or distant semantic associations or (ii) pairs of nouns which were randomly matched and later rated by the subjects as to their semantic distance.
(4) Semantically congruent situations consisted of adjective-noun pairs that were not highly predictable but were nonetheless plausible (e.g., GOOD-AUNT).
(5) As predicted, the younger children were better at correcting the nouns than the verbs; the two grammatical forms were corrected equally well by the older children.
(6) Each sentence was presented and then re-presented with the noun in Noun Phrase 1 (NP1) or Noun Phrase 2 (NP2) omitted.
(7) If a phrase that expresses a comment about a noun can be omitted without substantially changing the meaning, and if it would be pronounced after a slight pause and with its own intonation contour, then be sure to set it off with commas (or dashes or parentheses): "The Cambridge restaurant, which had failed to clean its grease trap, was infested with roaches."
(8) "Like" is a preposition, said the accusers, and may take only a noun phrase object, as in "crazy like a fox" or "like a bat out of hell".
(9) A difference between verbs and nouns remained even when level of concreteness was controlled.
(10) The sentences within each list consisted of stimulus-response pairs of high-imagery nouns.
(11) In Experiment 2, we ascertain that the bias is specific to nouns; novel adjectives do not highlight superordinate category relations.
(12) Thirdly we investigate his comprehension of semantically and thematically related nouns and verbs.
(13) The study is longitudinal and compares the development of body communication and speech (here: the use of nouns, verbs, adjectives, and pronouns) during the 18-month period of rehabilitation.
(14) Children's interpretations of the new nouns were assessed by asking subjects to select the named toy from an array of 4 toys (e.g., "Point to a fep").
(15) Imageability, concreteness, and the number of syllables in a word were found not to affect performance, nor were derived nouns more difficult to process than simple nouns.
(16) The development of abstract noun definitions follows the development of concrete noun definitions.
(17) Analysis indicated firstly a superiority of the left hemisphere for the naming of compound nouns in mixed print and pictorial representation.
(18) Of course, even though we brights will scrupulously insist that our word is a noun, if it catches on it is likely to follow gay and eventually re-emerge as a new adjective.
(19) Yet our confusions over the c-word are demonstrated by the fact that it has been common in recent years to find hundreds of women standing in a public arena and yelling the gynaecological obscenity: the setting is performances of the drama The Vagina Monologues, in which one sequence invites women to reclaim and empower the down-there noun.
(20) Instead, the results suggest that the lexical representation of a noun or familiar noun phrase provides a pointer to a nonlinguistic conceptual system, and it is in that system that the meaning of a sentence is constructed.
