Quantify Noun




Words and phrases that go with countable nouns :
many, a few, a number (of), several, fewer


Words and phrases that go with uncountable nouns:
much, a little, a bit (of), a great deal of, less, amount


Words and phrases that go with both countable and uncountable nouns:
no, none, some, any, a lot (of), plenty (of), lots of, more, quantity


To talk about an amount or number of something which is more than what we want or need, it's too much or too many + noun
Use too much before uncountable nouns and too many before countable nouns.
  • Ugh! You've put too much sugar in my tea! (sugar = uncountable)
  • I ate too many biscuits. (biscuit = countable)
You can also use too much on its own after a verb.
