The pronouns 'many' and 'much' are indefinite pronouns, words that take the place of nouns for unknown or unnamed people, things, or quantities.

The indefinite pronoun many is a plural form which takes a verb for a plural subject.

Example: The shipment of glasses arrived but many arebroken.

The indefinite pronoun much is a singular form which takes a verb for a singular subject.

Example: Much is salvageable from the shipment.

The word 'many' also functions as an adjective.

The word 'much' also functions as an adjective and an adverb.
