2. Many, Much
We use MANY to talk about things we can count and to talk about a large number:
Many mexicans are over weigth.
“How many hamburgers do you eat?” I eat five hamburgers when i go to
McDonald´s.
We use MUCH with things (nouns) we can´t count and to talk about a large
number:
Mexicans eat much sugar.
“How much rice do you eat?” “I don´t eat much
rice.”
3. We use FEW / A FEW only with things we can count and to talk about a small
number.
I have a few cucumbers (2), I can prepare a salad.
I eat few sanwiches every day, only two.
We use LITTLE / A LITTLE only with things we can´t count and to talk about a
small number.
Michael Phelps drinks a little coffe in the morning
Diabetic people wat little sugar.
4. Too / Enough
Too shows that something is more than you need or want:
Hamburgers have too many calories. / Children eat too much sugar.
(We can count calories) / (We can´t count sugar)
Enough shows something is sufficient. You have exactly the amount you need (no
more, no less):
I have enough apples to make the cake.
(I don´t need more apples)
You can also say it in negative: Mexicans don´t do enough exercise.
(They need to do more exercise)
5. More / Less / Fewer … than
We use the, to compare two things.
More means to have an extra of something: hamburgers have more calories
than sandwiches.
Less and fewer men to have a small quantity of something.
Less: Use it with things you can´t count: Tea has less antioxidants than regular
coffe
.
Few: Use it with things you can count: A can of diet cako has fewer calories than
a regular coke.
