abstract noun
Names invisible things
An abstract noun names something that cannot be perceived through the senses—a quality, state, concept, or idea rather than a physical object.
Love, justice, freedom, and childhood are abstract nouns.
The category contrasts with concrete nouns, which name things you can see, touch, hear, smell, or taste: Courage is an abstract noun; soldier is a concrete noun.
