Detailed Solution

Options A and D: General nouns name things. They can be concrete, collective, or abstract in nature.
Abstract nouns refer to things that cannot be recognized by our five senses. They commonly encompass concepts, states of being, and activities.
The word 'lie' in the sentence refers to 'an intentionally false statement' and is abstract because it cannot be seen or touched. Because 'abstract' is a more particular classification than 'common noun,' option D is accurate and options A is incorrect.

Things like ideas, concepts, emotions, and qualities are examples of abstract nouns. For instance, the abstract term "fear" refers to a state of mind. You may be able to see the object of your dread, such as a spider, but you cannot see or touch the source of your anxiety. The words mercy and justice are also abstract nouns.
