Did you know that words can have their own special teams, like superheroes? In English, we have something super cool called “collective nouns.” They are like secret codes for groups of things, animals, or people. For example, a bunch of bees is called a “swarm,” and it sounds much more fun than just saying “many bees,” right?
We have gathered a giant list of 84 of these awesome collective nouns to make your words sparkle and dance. Ready to dive into this exciting world and become a word superhero? Let’s go on this adventure together!
