Quantifiers – “Some” and “Any”

Solving the workbook today, I discovered that I still have some difficulties with some basic topics of English, one of this are the quantifiers “any” and “some”. So I want to view this topic another time. I searched and here are my notes.

• Both are used before nouns. Obvious, because quantifiers quantify nouns!

some	Affirmative sentences	I want some pencils
	Questions, if the answer that you wish is a “yes”	Would you like some more water? Could I have some beer, please?
any	Negative sentences.	He doesn’t have any friends in Viçosa.
	Questions	Have you got any pencils?
	After words with negative meaning as “never”, “hardly”, “without” and others.	You never give me any support.

In short, this is it! Enjoy!

I have until Friday for I give my workbook ready for the teacher. I think that I won´t get finishing it until there. I have a big problem. I prefer lose the points that do my tasks of whatever way and I only get doing the things when I want, I am willing. Let´s see if I get to do it until Friday.

Bye!

"Little" and "Few"

Until now, I reserved my diary to do commentaries about classes and the way how I have improved the classes.

Today I wanna talk about Grammar.

I would like to speak about quanfiers, especially about “few”, “little”, “a few”and “a little”.

Some examples of use:

Positive Way	a few	I´ve got a few friends.	maybe not many, but enough
	a little	I've got a little money.	I've got enough to live on
Negative Way	few	Few people visited him in hospital.	he had almost no visitors
	little	He had little money.	almost no money
