📝Grammar: 9B: Quantifiers

Large quantities come in two flavors: neutral and emphatic. Use **a lot of** or **lots of** in affirmative sentences with any noun, and **loads of** when you want the informal cousin. **Many** and **much** sound stiff in affirmatives but are perfectly natural in negatives and questions. Pair **many** with countable nouns and **much** with uncountable ones — while **a lot of** works everywhere, including negatives and questions. **Plenty of** means more than enough, with a comfortable, satisfied tone. After months of neglect, his vitality returned, and now he has **plenty of** energy for long
