noun: a word that designates or names a thing (e.g. a person, a place, an inanimate object). Although such concrete things are prototypical, this category in many languages also includes words denoting more abstract "things", such as qualities, actions and states. See also nominal, noun phrase. [Spanish: sustantivo]
