What are the different between much, alot, very, and many?Anybody can explain it please. Regards recep |
------------------------------------ Hi RECEP, It all depends on count & non-count nouns , For Example: You must drink a lot (not alot) of water. "much" is used for mostly non-count nouns. "very" & "many" are used for count-nouns.
Regards Noren Lee (NEPAL)
count-nouns = "the things that we can count" non-count nouns= "the things that we cannot count" _________________ A person who makes no mistakes does not usually make anything. |

Hi its Aida from Australia many = things we can count... many books, many occaisions or many people. much = things we can't count.. love you very much!! much rain, too much hussle. in other words many is for countable things and much is for uncountable things. Did I make it easy? |

We can use "many" only with countable nouns (many apples) and "much" only with uncountable ones. The use of "a lot" will be correct with both countable and uncountable nouns: "a lot of drink", "a lot of potatoes". As for "very", this word is mostly used to show a degree of amount or quality or some other aspects of different things: "very much, "very many", "very beautiful", "very ugly". _________________ An interested teacher, interesting lessons, interested pupils - these are three sides of a triangle named 'teaching'. |

Much .You use it for uncountable nouns. I used to much nerves to solve this problem. Many.You use this for countable nouns. How many days did you spend in Spain?Ten. A lot.Means a great quantity.You use it for countable nouns. I have a lot of books.Means many. Very is an adverb.you Use it in front of an adjective for example.These trousers are very big. I hope I could help. Regards Marica |

“Much” is used for uncountable nouns. How about “much more”? Is it for countable nouns? Is the phrase “much more details” better than “much more detail” ? |
