Is concern a countable or uncountable noun? -- Carlouni 20:13, 15 January 2012 (UTC-5)

It can be both, e.g. (uncountable) "there is some concern about whether the company has enough employees to keep going", and (countable) "the company is part of several international business concerns". Equinox 01:19, 16 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Rfv-sense interjection. (Internet slang) Used to express concern on the part of the speaker in response to something.

For those that haven't encountered this, it's literally just saying the word "concern" as a response. I've just added this myself, as it's something I've definitely used/seen used, but it's quite difficult to search for. Theknightwho (talk) 14:40, 9 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
