I'll help you match the common nouns with their proper noun examples. Let me work through this step by step.
Step 1: Understanding the task
- Common nouns are general words for people, places, or things (not specific)
- Proper nouns are specific names and always start with a capital letter
- I need to match each common noun on the left with its corresponding proper noun example on the right
Step 2: Matching each pair
Let me go through each one:
1.
woman → This is a general term for an adult female person. Looking at the options, "Susan" is a specific woman's name. ✓
2.
month → A general time period. "October" is a specific month. ✓
3.
country → A general place. "Spain" is a specific country. ✓
4.
day → A general time period. "Monday" is a specific day of the week. ✓
5.
book → A general thing you read. "The Giver" is a specific book title. ✓
6.
movie → A general film. "The Avengers" is a specific movie. ✓
7.
superhero → A general type of character. "Spiderman" is a specific superhero. ✓
8.
school → A general place for learning. "Ellis Elementary" is a specific school. ✓
9.
cook → A general job/person who cooks. "Chef Ramsey" is a specific cook/chef. ✓
10.

13.
football team → A general sports team. "The Eagles" is a specific football team. ✓
14.
mountain → A general geographical feature. "Mount Everest" is a specific mountain. ✓
Step 3: Verification
Let me double-check that all matches make sense and that I haven't used any proper noun twice:
- Monday, Susan, Spain, October, Spiderman, Ellis Elementary, Officer George, Mount Everest, The Avengers, Chef Ramsey, Walmart, German Shepherd, The Eagles, "The Giver"
All 14 proper nouns are used exactly once, and all matches are logical!
Final Answer:
- woman → Susan
- month → October
- country → Spain
- day → Monday
- book → "The Giver"
- movie → The Avengers
- superhero → Spiderman
- school → Ellis Elementary
- cook → Chef Ramsey
