ab·stract noun
noun
- a noun denoting an idea, quality, or state rather than a concrete object.
When writing a (8) OPENER sentence, be very sure to use the word AS A NOUN. Some of these words can be used as a different part of speech.
FOR EXAMPLE:
(8) Love will save the world. <-- That "love" is an (8), an abstract noun.
Love your children, and take good care of them. <---That "love" is a verb.
Remember . . . our (8) OPENER is a sentence that begins with an abstract noun. There are other acceptable variations of an (8) --- but you may only use them if you indicate correctly. Examples:
(article + 8) and (adj. + 8) and (noun + 8) and (pronoun +8)
(article + 8) The determination on Toby's face made his opponents nervous.
(adj. + 8) Fierce determination was the only thing that drove him across the finish line.
(noun + 8) Toby's determination never faltered.
(pronoun +8) His determination never faltered.
