Question
Which of the following is not a Collective Noun?FleetCrowdFamilyJudgement
Solution
The word that is not a Collective Noun among the options is "Judgement". Collective nouns are names for a collection or a number of people or things. Words like 'Fleet', 'Crowd' and 'Family' refer to a group of things or people and hence are collective nouns. However, 'Judgement' does not refer to a group of people or things, it refers to an ability to make considered decisions or come to sensible conclusions, and hence it is not a collective noun.
