''Synopsis:'' A noun, in basic terms, is a word that is a thing or an object or a concept. Examples include words like ''book'' ([[Βιβλιον]]) which is a thing or an object, and ''love'' ([[Αγαπη]]) which is a abstract concept or an idea. Unlike English, in Koine Greek, nouns decline, that is, they undergo changes in their form depending upon their use in a sentence.

A noun, in basic terms, is a word that is a thing or an object or a concept.

Examples include words like ''book'' ([[Βιβλιον]]) which is a thing or an object, and ''love'' ([[Αγαπη]]) which is a abstract concept or an idea.

===Function of nouns in a sentence===

Unlike English, in Koine Greek, nouns decline, that is, they undergo changes in their form depending upon their use in a sentence.

In Greek, nouns are classified as one of the following
* Nominative (the subject of a verb)
* Accusative (usually the direct object of a verb)
* Dative (usually the indirect object of a verb)
* Genitive (usually representing possession, or qualifying another noun)
* Vocative (a form of address)

Nouns can also be related to a preposition
