-Some nouns are uncountable, they are usually marked in the dictionary of Nûrlâm. You can't use indefinite article "ash" with uncountable nouns. However definite articles may be used with them.
+Some nouns are uncountable, they are usually marked in the dictionary of Nûrlâm. You can't use indefinite article "ash" with uncountable nouns. However definite articles may be used with them. Don't worry much about memorizing the distinction between countable and uncountable nouns. If you can add a number before noun in English, than the noun in countable, if the result makes not much sense in English (e.g. "five waters"), than the noun is uncountable.
