The word "less" and all of its conjugates should be used when discussing amounts that are grouped in a way as to be uncountable by traditional means.

For example, "less sugar" or "less money," "fewer grains of sugar" or "fewer dollars."

In contrast, "lesser" is a word meaning "beneath." I. e., "A lesser position" or "lesser than that." "Least" means "the lowest," I. e., "The least favorable table" or "the least wanted position."

"Lesser" can stand alone, but "least" requires clarification.
