How many chairs are in the room? How many sisters do you have? How many hours did you work yesterday? How many days until Christmas? How many people will come?
How much time do we have? How much stress does she have? How much sugar do we need? How much money did she spend? Sometimes, we do not need the noun. We can do this when the noun is easily understood by the listener. How much did she spend? We leave out the noun usually when we are talking about the weather or money. How much did it rain? How much did it snow? This is the best quiz I had ever taken. Thank you! Thanks a lot! Thank you for the class! Thanks for your video.

And then same thing here, we can include the plural form of the noun, or you can just finish your sentence, finish your answer with the number.
There are five, for example. Another quantifier we can use is "lots of. This one is actually quite useful because we can use this one with uncountable nouns as well. It's quite handy. Of course, same thing if there are no, if there are zero of whatever noun you're looking for, you can use "there aren't any," some things.
But again, don't forget your plural form at the end. Now, let's talk about an event, some kind of gathering, a party, a meeting, whatever. If you want to ask this question and you need the answer for it, you can use a specific answer at the beginning of the sentence, a specific number.
Like, "Five people are coming" is fine. That's fine. Or, "Five are coming. Any variation here, as long as you include a number, some amount somewhere. If you don't have kind of a positive image of the number of people who are coming, you can try this expression.
I don't think many people are coming. I don't think. Another pattern. Finally, let's look at two patterns you can use for this last question. Here, you can see I've used "I need a lot of. Money is an uncountable noun. We can use this quantifier with it as well. Finally, "I need a handful.
Here, it's the same idea. If you're talking about small objects, you can say, "I need a handful of markers," for example. This is usually something we use for everyday items, maybe office supplies or maybe art projects. I don't know. We typically don't use this for big items really because it's not easy to imagine having a handful of, I don't know, large items.
You might hear it here and there, but generally, we use it for smaller things. These are a few ways you can answer some "how many" questions, and some of these quantifiers, like I said, can be used for uncountable nouns as well. Let's move on to that part.
Let's look at then at some "how much" questions. I have just a few here and a couple notes as well. Just three to introduce similarly to the "how many" question with, "How many, some things, do you have? Here, "how much. How much free time do you have? The second question, "How much something is there? How much wine is there? How much beer is there? This is another one that's kind of parallel to this "how many" question. Finally, "How much do you need?
How much money do you need for your project? I know that each of these starts with "how much," but one point to be careful of, many of my students have had this problem, when you answer these questions and you want to use a positive statement to answer the question, it's incorrect to use "much" when you do that. For example, "How much money do you have?
We can't use much when we're making positive statements of quantity. Please be careful. Don't use much in a positive reply. With that in your mind then, let's look at some sample answers for this. I didn't include it over here. There's not much space but we can use some for both countable and uncountable nouns. I have some chickens. Then let's look at another one. Here, we see it again. Also, you'll notice in each of these examples, I'm not including an S at the end of each of these.
We can't count these nouns, so there's no plural form that's there. We don't use an S at the end of our answer. No S here. Continuing on, if there are zero or if there is zero rather in this case of your uncountable noun, "I don't have any. I don't have any money. I don't have any time. We looked at that over here. Another one. I mentioned here, we can't use "much" in a positive statement of quantity.
However, we can use "much" in a negative statement of quantity. In this sentence, "I don't have much time. I don't have much money. I do not have much of something. They will learn how to use much and many with some level appropriate vocabulary for foods.
They will be able to conduct a simple conversation at the grocery store. How many? Countable nouns are nouns things we can count. For example: flowers, tomatoes, etc. We use a or an before a noun we can count. For example: a potato, an orange.
It means one potato, one orange. Uncountable nouns are nouns things we cannot count. For example: sugar, rice, etc. We use some before a noun we cannot count.
