 COUNTABLE AND UNCOUNTABLE
COUNTABLE
The countable nouns are those elements
that can be counted one by one using the
numbers.
UNCOUNTABLE
The uncountable nouns are those
elements that we can not count using
numbers but using quantifiers or
partitives.
 HOW ARE COUNTABLE AND UNCOUNTABLE
NOUNS USED?
The countable names have a singular and plural form. When we refer to the countable
names in singular, these can be preceded by the indeterminate article a/an.
The countless names only have a singular form, usually they do not carry articles but
sometimes they can be accompanied by some / any.
Examples:
1 I have some fruit in my
bag.
2 We need some carrots.
3 There are some biscuits
on the plate.
QUANTIFIERS: (HOW) MUCH/MANY, A LOT OF, A FEW, A
LITTLE
Quantifiers help us express an indeterminate amount of something. We will use a
quantifier or another depending on the quantity (greater or lesser) and the type of noun
(countable or uncountable).
 MANY AND MUCH
MANY: It is used to express that there is a large number of something, therefore, it precedes plural
countable names. It is used in negative and interrogative sentences, although it can be used in
affirmative sentences in a less colloquial language.
In the case of affirmative sentences, many can be used when preceded by the particle too whose
translation would be too many; or by the particle so, which in this case would be translated by so
many / many or many.
Examples:
There aren't many tomatoes left.
There are too many cars in the cities.
Do you have many hobbies?.
I didn't know you had acted in so many films.
MUCH: It is used to express that there is a large quantity of something, therefore, it
precedes countless names. It is used in negative and interrogative sentences.
Much can be used in affirmative phrases when preceded by the particle too, whose
translation would be too much; or by the particle so, which in this case would be translated
therefore / so much or a lot.
Examples:
We haven't got much time.
Did you pay much for this trench coat?
There is too much salt.
I love you so much!
 A LOT
"A lot of" is used with both countable and
OF:
uncountable names to indicate a lot. The
difference with "much" and "many" is that
"a lot of" is used in affirmative sentences.
Ex .:
1) How much soup do you want? A lot.
2) There are a lot of pictures on the
wall.
3) I have a lot of money.
4) Sara has got a lot of books.
WHEN DO WE USE A LITTLE/LITTLE AND
WHEN A FEW/FEW?
a little: non countable nouns (milk, marmalade, money, time etc.)
a few: countable nouns (bottles of milk, jars of marmalade,
dollars, minutes etc.)
Examples:
He has a little money left.
He has a few dollars left.
There are a few chocolates to give to the guests.
We use few and little without the article a to point out a more
negative meaning.
Examples:
I have few chocolates to give to the guests.
Few students know this.
