Telad u bujadi
Telad u bujadi (Calves in Ferns)

Summary/Abstract: Nouns can be divided into two groups. One group comprises the countable nouns (stol, pismo), and the other group comprises the uncountable nouns. Uncountable nouns are abstract nouns, such as glazba or volja and mass nouns (voda, zrak), as well as concrete collective nouns with collective meaning, such as stoka, nakit, bujad, zrnje. Collective nouns with collective meaning are perceived as indivisible lexicalized sets (suharje, bujad, suđe), and they are followed by singular predicates. Other collective nouns may be perceived as divisible (blizančad, dojenčad, telad) and they may also be followed by plural predicates.
