Answer:

dignity, allegiance, pride, pleasure, and disrespect

Step-by-step explanation:

Abstract nouns:

These types of nouns express ideas, concepts, or qualities that cannot be seen or experienced. We cannot see, hear, touch, taste, or smell abstract nouns.

Dignity pride disrespect pleasure allegiance.

These are abstract nouns because abstract nouns are nouns you can’t see, feel, etc. For example, let’s say you get a job, a job is a noun because it’s a thing, BUT you can’t see it, you can’t go around saying “I got a job! Want to pet my job? My job is friendly, pet my job!” It doesn’t work, therefore it’s an abstract noun.

Hope this makes sense and helps
