sorrow
As a noun, "sorrow" is most commonly used as an uncountable noun to describe a general feeling of sadness. However, it can be used as a countable noun when referring to specific events that cause grief (e.g., "the sorrows of life"). When used as a verb, "sorrow" is quite formal and less common in modern daily conversation. In everyday English, people are more likely to use words like "mourn" or "grieve" instead.
