Quantifiers: how much and how many
We use quantifiers to talk about amounts. First ask yourself: can I count it?
Countable → How many?
apples · eggs · raisins · nuts · biscuits. We can say one, two, three…
Uncountable → How much?
milk · sugar · juice · jam · cereal. We cannot count them (we count bottles or spoons).
