表示数量
一、英语中表示“许多”的词组很多,按其用法可以分为以下三类
1、修饰可名词:many、a number of、 a few、many a、several等。many a 的意思相当于many , 但many a 后边接可数名词单数,如:

2、修饰不可数名词:much、a great deal of、a large amount of等。

二、few、little;a few、a little的用法:
1、few 和a few 都修饰可数名词。few意为“几乎没有”,表示否定;a few表示“有些、几个”,表示肯定;quite a few=many(修饰可数名词)表示“许多”。如:
I have eaten a few apples today.=I have eaten many apples today.
