- 1. MUCH, MANY LITTLE, FEW, A LOT, PLENTY. BY: CLAUDIA PATRICIA CACHEO AND LIZETH FERNANDA MENDOZA DUSSAN
- 5. We use too much and soo much in positive sentences: - I can’t drink this tea. There’s too much sugar in it. WE USE MUCH AND MANY MAINLY IN NEGATIVE SENTENCES AND QUESTIONS - We didn’t spend much money. - Have you got many friends? In positive sentences it is usually better to use a lot (of). Much is specially unusual in positive sentences: - We spent a lot of money. (not ‘ we spent much money’) - There has ben a lot of rain recently. (not ‘much rain’)
