Countable or Uncountable?
We use different quantifiers in English depending on whether the noun is countable (things we can count like apples 🍏) or uncountable (things we can’t count like water 💧). Here’s a quick guide to help you out:
🔹 For Countable Nouns:
- Few: “There are few chairs left.”
- Many: “How many books do you have?”
- A lot of/Lots of: “We have a lot of friends.”
🔹 For Uncountable Nouns:
- Little: “I have little time to spare.”
- Much: “How much money do you need?”
- A lot of/Lots of: “We have a lot of milk.”
🔹 For Both:
- Some: “I’d like some apples and some juice.”
- Any: “Do you have any questions?”
Remember, countable nouns are things we can count individually, while uncountable nouns are treated as whole masses. Simple, right?
