- 11. How much or How many Talking About Money and Cost Money is an example of a non-countable noun, so when talking about money and cost, you will need to use the phrase "how much." How much does the book cost? How much do the toys cost? How much can also be used with the verb to be to ask about a price: How much is it? How much are the apples? However, if the question concerns a specific unit of a currency such as dollars, which is countable, you should use how many: How many dollars does the house cost? How many euros do you need for lunch? How many pesos can you afford?
- 12. How much w/ non-countable nouns Categories of non-countable nouns include: Activities: housework, music, socializing, etc. Food types: meat, beef, pork, fish, etc. Groups of items: luggage, baggage, furniture, software, etc. Liquids: juice, water, alcohol, etc. Materials: wood, steel, leather, etc. When asking for the quantity of any of these items, make sure to use how much: How much luggage did you take with you on vacation? How much alcohol did you drink? How much pork should I buy? How much homework do you have? How much knowledge do you have about the subject? How much help did he give you last week? How much advice would you like?
- 13. How many w/ countable nouns How Many is used with countable nouns. These nouns are easy to recognize because they generally end in the plural form with s. How many books are there on the shelf? How many days did it take you to finish the project? How many computers do you have? However, there are a number of important exceptions to this rule including the following countable nouns that have irregular plurals and do not take an s.
- 14. How many using containers and measurements If you are looking for an exact measurement when speaking about food types and liquids, it's a good idea to use containers or measurements. In this case, you can use how many to ask a question: Containers: How many bottles of wine should I buy? How many boxes of rice should I get? How many jars of jam do you have? Measurements: How many gallons of gas did you use on your trip? How many cups of butter do I need for this recipe? How many pounds of sand should I mix into the cement?
- 15. Answering Questions of Quantity Approximately To provide approximate answers, you can phrases like: a lot of, some, a few, and a little. Note that there are slight differences between countable and non-countable answers. You can use a lot of with both countable and non-countable nouns which are followed by the noun in the answer: How much rice do we have? - We have a lot of rice. How many friends did you make on vacation? - I made a lot of friends. You can also use a lot of for both countable and noncount nouns when the answer is not followed by a noun: How much time do you have today? - I have a lot. How many cars have you had in your life? - I've had a lot. You can use some with both countable and non-countable nouns: How much money do you have? - I have some money, but not much. How many apples are on the table? - There are some apples on the table. You should use a few with countable nouns and a little with non-countable nouns: How much fun did you have? - I had a little fun last night. How many glasses did you drink? - I drank a few glasses of wine.

Editor's Notes
- #6: Million = 100襷 Billion = 10 Trillion = 1譟
- #8: 56, 23 Dates, ranks, fractions, and sequences Dates: When we write the date, we often use ordinal numbers to indicate the day of the month. For example, "Today is the 24th of March." Ranks: We use ordinal numbers to describe the position of someone or something in a competition or ranking system. For example, "He finished in third place." Fractions: We use ordinal numbers to describe fractions that are not whole numbers. For example, "Two-thirds of the cake was eaten." Sequences: We use ordinal numbers to describe the position of an item in a sequence or list. For example, "The first item on the list is milk."
- #9: Ordinal numbers油are used when speaking about the day of the month, or a油position in a group. Most numbers end in 'th', except "first", "second", and "third" of every ten numbers: One-quarter, three quarters One third, two third One-half
- #16: Few: a number or a figure of five or less Some: larger quantity that ranges between five and ten "some," "little," and "few" are all quantifiers that describe the amount or quantity of something. However, they are used in different ways and convey different meanings. Some: "Some" is used to describe an unspecified quantity of something that is positive or neutral. It implies that there is a quantity that exists, but we don't know exactly how much. For example: "I have some books to read." (We don't know how many books there are, but there are definitely books to read.) "There are some apples on the table." (We don't know how many apples there are, but there are definitely apples on the table.) Little: "Little" is used to describe a small or insufficient amount of something. It implies that the amount is not enough or is considered negative. For example: "I have little time to finish my project." (There isn't enough time to finish the project.) "She has little experience in this field." (She doesn't have enough experience to be considered qualified.) Few: "Few" is used to describe a small number or amount of something that is considered negative or undesirable. It implies that there should be more of something. For example: "There are few students in this class." (There should be more students in the class.) "Few people attended the meeting." (More people should have attended the meeting.) In summary, "some" is used for an unspecified but positive or neutral quantity, "little" is used for a small or insufficient amount, and "few" is used for a small number or amount that is considered negative or undesirable.
