Erklärung anzeigen
A material noun names a tangible substance, raw material, or matter that exists as an undivided mass rather than an individual countable object. In standard usage, these words do not take indefinite articles or plural endings unless their meaning shifts to a container, a specific document, a single serving, or a category.
