Noncountable nouns after 'a lot'.

A noun after the phrase 'a lot of' should be noncountable?

The phrase "a lot of" can be used with both countable and noncountable nouns. However, when it is used with a noncountable noun, it is generally used in the same way as other quantifiers that are used with noncountable nouns, such as "a great deal of," "a large amount of," or "a bit of."

For example:

A lot of water
A lot of sugar
A lot of information
In each of these examples, "water," "sugar," and "information" are noncountable nouns, but they can still be used after the phrase "a lot of."

It is important to note that there are some nouns that are generally noncountable but can be used in a countable sense. In these cases, "a lot of" can still be used with the countable sense of the noun. For example, "a lot of hair" (referring to individual strands of hair) or "a lot of paper" (referring to individual sheets of paper).
