The words much and many mean a lot of. • If a noun is in singular, we use much Example: much money If a noun is in plural, we use many Example: many friends

Use of much / many In everyday English, we normally use much / many only in questions and negative clauses. Example: How much money have you got? Carla does not have many friends. In positive clauses with so, as or too, we also use much / many. Example: Carla has so many friends. She has as many friends as Sue. Kevin has too much money. In all other positive clauses, however, we prefer expressions like a lot of / lots of. Example: Carla has a lot of / lots of friends. Kevin has a lot of / lots of money. In formal texts, however, much / many are also common in positive clauses. This you will notice for example when you read English news.


Countable / Uncountable Nouns In connection with much / many people often speak of countable nouns and uncountable nouns. Countable nouns have a singular and a plural form. In plural, these nouns can be used with a number (that's why they are called 'countable nouns'). Countable nouns take many. Example: 100 friends – many friends Uncountable nouns can only be used in singular. These nouns cannot be used with a number (that's why they are called 'uncountable nouns'). Uncountable nouns take much. Example: 100 money – much money Note: Of course you can count money – but then you would name the currency and say that you have got 5 euro (but not „5 money“).

• Use "this" when something is nearby. • Use "that" when something is a distance away. something is a distance away. This book belongs to you. That dog is asleep. This shirt is mine. That car is his.


- "These"(this) and "those" (that) are the plural forms of "this" and "that". These children have been reading all afternoon. (Meaning the ones in the same room) These are mine. Those children have been playing outside all day. Those are yours.

More Examples: That is my boyfriend, Thomas. This is half of a pizza. That is a third of a pizza. This is a quarter of a pizza. This is a whole pizza. These are slices of pizza. This is a whole pizza. This fish is frozen. Those orange are fresh. That banana is rotten. This water is very cold.

Nota: Es importante que quede claro que el uso del ‘This’ es para cosas que estan cerca o/y son tangibles o simplemente las tenemos con nosotros, y ‘That’ lo utilizamos con cosas que estan lejos y simplemente queremos mostrar. ‘Those’ es el plural de ‘That’ y ‘These’ es el plurar de ‘This’, se usan igual.


This is an expression always use to express what is your opinion about something or someone.

Examples: I don’t think that it will rain today. I think that I can repair this. They think that math is interesting. They think that history is boring.
