都是多少,用来询问事物的数量的意思,但他们修饰的成分不同,how much对不可数提问,how many对可数提问
how many后接可数名词复数
how many apples do you have?
how much 后接
不可数名词how much apple juice is there in the bottle?
另外how much还有特殊用法
1询问重量
2询问价格,多少钱?
3询问数字计算结果
many和much的区别:
一、共同点
它们在句中都可作主语、宾语、定语。有时也可作状语,主要用于否定句和
疑问句中。在肯定句中一般用 a lot of,lots of,plenty of。例如:
Do you have many good friends?
Is there much water in the bottle?
There are a lot of people in the hall.
二、不同点
many 用来代替或修饰可数名词,而 much 用来修饰或代替不可数名词。
注意:A many 作主语时,动词用复数;much 作主语,动词用单数。例如:
Many of us know a little English.
Much has been said.
B.much 可用于形容词、副词比较级之前,而 many 不能。
但如果 many 后修饰 more,more 代替或修饰可数名词复数时,前
面只能用 many,而不能用 much。例如:
This classroom is much bigger than that one.
He has many more books than I have.
