And the little Boy said, “Aunty, please help me with my assignment. It’s on Collective Nouns”
In plain words, I was disgraced. I couldn’t even remember 40% of Collective nouns or a group of ‘this’ is called ‘that’. After some google help, I remembered there are people like me everywhere hence, this blog post.
A collective noun is a word for a group of specific items, animals or people. For example collective nouns for ships are: Fleet of Ships and Armada of Ships. You can check out 100 examples of collective nouns
Read below a list of collective nouns I compiled from my search:
a group of ships is called a fleet,
a group of cows is called a herd,
a grouped of lions is called a pride,
a group of baseball players is called a team,
a group of ants is called a colony,
a group of caterpillars, frogs, soldiers is called an army,
a group of circuits is called bank,
a group of flowers is called bouquet,
a group of worshippers is called congregation,
a group of wolves is called pack,
a group of trees is called orchard
a group of books is called library
a group of fishes is called school
a group of ants, bats, beavers, lepers, penguins is called colony
a group of grapes is called bunch
a group of hyenas is called clan
a group of kitten is called Kindle
a group of singers is called choir
a group of thieves is called gang
a group of bees is called hive
a group of clothes is called a wardrobe
