Collective Nouns can also be described as "group terms or collections" especially for animals and people(animate)like "a band of musicians", "an army of soldiers", "a herd of buffaloes" and for objects (inanimate) like "a bale of cotton or wool", "a forest of trees", "a stack of hay" or singular words to describe groups of people like "assembly", "audience", "congregation", "crowd", "mob", "spectators" etc. etc. I am trying to compile a list of such group terms to be posted later but it seems unending....
