few和little的区别:few和little在单独用时,在形容数量方面,两者表达的都是否定概念,表示“几乎没有”,它和no/not any表达“没有”不同,毕竟few和little仍表示“还有一丢丢,只是很少而已”。few和little的区别.jpg

1. few 与 little 作形容词用,都表示“几乎没有”,相当于一个否定词。具体区别:

e.g. He has few friends. 他没有几个朋友。

2. a few 与 a little 都表示肯定的意思,指“有一点,有一些”。具体区别:

(1) a few 后加可数名词复数

(2)a little 后加不可数名词单数。

3. a little 与 little 也可以用作副词, 表示“有点”“稍稍” 表示“很少”
