Students will be able to correctly identify and use countable and uncountable nouns with appropriate quantifiers in both written and spoken English.

# data[].attributes.body
By the end of the lesson, students will:
- Differentiate between countable and uncountable nouns
- Form correct plural forms of countable nouns
- Apply appropriate quantifiers (much, many, some, any, a few, a little, etc.)
- Use quantifiers in meaningful sentences

# data[].attributes.body
Students will work in pairs using Padlet to create two columns: countable and uncountable nouns. They will classify 20 common nouns provided by the teacher.

Teacher presents the rules for using different quantifiers with countable and uncountable nouns using examples from everyday life.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
We use quantifiers when we want to give someone information about the number of something: how much or how many.

Sometimes we use a quantifierin the place of a determiner:

Quantifiers with count and uncount nouns

We can use these quantifiers with both count and uncount nouns:

Level: intermediate
These more colloquial forms are also used with both count and uncount nouns:
Level: beginner
We do not normally use the quantifier some in negative and interrogative sentences. We normally use any:

but we can use some for offers and requests:

Quantifiers with count nouns

Some quantifiers can be used only with count nouns:

These more colloquial forms are used only with count nouns:

Quantifiers with uncount nouns

Some quantifiers can be used only with uncount nouns:

These quantifiers are used particularly with abstract nouns such as time, money and trouble:

Members of groups

We put a noun directly after a quantifier when we are talking about members of a group in general:

but if we are talking about members of a specific group, we use of the as well:

Few of the snakes in this zoo are dangerous.
Most of the boys at my school play football.
He's spentall (of) the money that we gave him.
Both (of) the chairs in my office are broken.

Note: with all and both, we don't need to use of. We can say all the ... and both the ... .

both, either and neither

If we are talking about two people or things, we use the quantifiers both, either and neither:

Note that nouns with both have a plural verb but nouns with either and neither have a singular verb.

every and each

There was a party in every street. (= There were parties in all the streets.)
Every shop was decorated with flowers. (= All the shops were decorated with flowers.)
Each child was given a prize. (= All the children were given a prize.)
There was a prize in each competition. (= There were prizes in all the competitions.)

We often use every to talk about times like days, weeks and years:

We do not use a determiner with every and each:

Every shop was decorated with flowers. (NOT The every shop)
Each child was given a prize. (NOT The each child)

Exercises Explanation Downloads

Much, many, little, few, some, any - quantifiers

Exercise 1

Choose much, many, little, few, some, any to complete each sentence.

Much, many, little, few, some, any - Grammar chart

Many/much

Many for countable, much for uncountable in (?) (-)

We use many before plural (countable) nouns and much before uncountable nouns. We use them in negative sentences and questions. We don't normally use them in affirmative sentences.

Too much/too many

Note that we don't normally use much/ many in affirmative sentences, but we can use too much and too many in affirmative sentences.

How much/how many

We use how many and how much to ask about quantity.

A lot of/lots of

Before both countable and uncountable

We use a lot of or lots of (more informal) before both plural (countable) and uncountable nouns. We normally use them in positive sentences.

Of before noun; no of at the end of sentence

We must always use a lot of or lots of including of before a noun. However, we can use the expressions a lot or lots (without of) at the end of a sentence.

(A) few/(a) little/a bit of

Few for countable; little for uncountable

We use (a) few before plural (countable) nouns and (a) little or a bit of (more informal) before uncountable nouns.

Few or a few? little or a little?

A few means 'some but not many; enough', and a little means 'some but not much; enough' .

Few/little mean 'almost none; not enough'.

Normally, the difference between a few/little (WITH a) and few/little (WITHOUT a) is that a few/little is positive in meaning, and few/little is negative. Compare:

'Do you speak English?' 'No, I speak very little English.' (=Negative)

'Do you speak English?' 'Yes, I speak a little English.' (=Positive)

Some/any

Some in (+); any in (?) (-)

We use some in affirmative sentences and any in negative sentences and questions.

With both countable (plural) and uncountable

Both some and any can be used before countable and uncountable nouns. But if we use them before a countable noun, the noun must be in the plural form.

Are there any students in the classroom? (NOT Is there any student in the classroom?)

Some for offers and requests

We use some (NOT any) in interrogative sentences when we are offering or requesting (=asking for) something.
