Yes. An abstract noun names an idea, quality, or characteristic. Discrimination is an idea.

It has been said that the word poetry is concrete: poetry itself is abstract. I should think that the same thing applies to discrimination. Have you been given a definition (of abstract noun)? There isn’t one in Webster’s Dictionary.

It depends what you mean by “God.” If you believe “God” is an actual dude with a long beard throwing lightning bolts (or basically that he is a being), then “God” is a concrete noun. But if you use the word “God” to refer to like an…essence, for lack of a better word, then it is an abstract noun. edited, realized i had mistyped lol
