Scott,

The CuvPlus English dictionary, based originally on the Oxford Advanced 
Learner's Dictionary of Current English, and available for research from the 
Oxford Text Archive, has the nouns tagged as count/mass/either.

Dear Corpora List Members,

I am trying to locate an electronic list of mass and count nouns in English.
I am looking at the development of hypernymic relations in L2 learners of
English and would like to compute the amount of mass and count nouns used by
L2 learners as they relate to basic level categories and superordinate
categories in language use.

Any help would be appreciated!
