much or many

When do we use much and when do we use many?

We use:

much with uncountable nouns in singular and

many with countable nouns in plural.

Look at our examples of countable/uncountable nouns.

We often use much/many in questions and negations.

We normally use a lot of/lots of in affirmative sentences.

Examples:
How much money do you have? - I don't have much left.

How many dollars do you have? - I don't have many left.

In informal English these questions are often answered with a lot of/lots of. There is no much difference between the two phrases.

Note: We use much or many after as, so and too. It is wrong to use a lot of/lots with these words.(We have so a lot of homework to do.)

We have so much homework to do.
We have too much homework to do.

a little or a few

a little: non countable nouns (milk, marmalade, money, time etc.)
a few: countable nouns (bottles of milk, jars of marmalade, dollars, minutes etc.)

Examples:
He has a little money left.
He has a few dollars left.
