pls tell me the difference b/w
few,a few and a little.
Dear Student,
1. Few or little (without 'a') describes a a more negative idea.
For example:
Be quick. There is little time (i.e. there is not enough time)
I have few friends (i.e. not many friends)
2. A few, a little are used to describe more positive ideas.
For example:
Let's pack this too. We have got a little time before the bus leaves. (i.e. some time)
I have a few chocolates. (i.e some chocolates)
