Are there dictionaries giving knowledge on countability of nouns?

Question

Is there any dictionary, online or physical, that gives information on whether a noun is countable or not?

Macmillan is the best one that I know of. – Damkerng T. Aug 20 '14 at 07:22 — Damkerng T., Aug 20 '14 at 07:22

The Oxford Learner's Dictionary does what you're looking for, I believe. For an example, here is their page on "water", which says "1 [uncountable] a liquid without colour[...]"

If the noun is countable (for instance, table), The Oxford Learner's Dictionary will simply not mention it - so assume that it's countable unless otherwise stated.
