Quantitative Adjectives, A few, So few, A little
A few
Since the sentence structure is positive, if we want to point to more than one object or person, we use the adjective a few.
When we use this adjective, we do not specify the exact amount of what we are pointing out.
Example Sentences
- I have got a fewfriends so I will never be alone.
- I have got a fewpencils in order to take notes.
A Little
When talking about substances that cannot be counted in quantity, we usually use the adjective a little. When we use this adjective, we make it clear that the object is more than one. But in this case, the number of objects is not important. Instead, the object is used in a wider sense.
Example Sentences
- I have got a little money, it is enough to buy this book.
- I have got a little water, I can take these bills.
