Question

Is joy a concrete or abstract noun technically it is both but you would put abstract but joy is a name so joy could be a person so is it abstract or concrete

Answer 1

It is abstract. Joy is a feeling/emotion. Feelings and emotions are abstract nouns and are not tangible items.

If the word were “Joy”, with a capital letter, it would be abstract because the word is being used as a proper noun. In the case of this question, the word joy is abstract.
