I will give you a little more time to complete the test. The job took a little more (or, a little less) time to do than I expected.
"Few days to go June will be ended soon" is not correct grammar. The correct grammar is "June will end in a few days to come." or "A few days to go until June ends."
I surmise that "few" is relating to "quantity" whereas "little" refers to "size". An example of this is: This answer was supplied with as little few words as possible.
"Peu" in French means "little" or "few".
The correct indefinite article for "boligrafos" is "unos," which means "some" or "a few" in English.
Few means a small number (or a relatively small number) of things/people etc, and is used where there are individual items that can be counted.Example sentences:Very few people reach the age of 120.Many are called, but few are chosen.There are a few things I must do before I go away on holiday.Little means 'small' and relates to relative size or volume, rather than number. It is also used with 'uncountable' nouns.Some example sentences:The little child stared at the huge elephant and said ...So much to do, too little time.The crops are failing because there has been little rainthis season.The rescuers said they had little hope of finding any survivors.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Examples of few and little used together:The old man has few teeth in his mouth and little hair on his head.At the conference there were few (not many) in attendance, and little (not much) interest in the issues being presented.Number? or Size?"I've got a few pimples on my face." - This indicates how many pimples. (not many, as it happens!)"I've got a little pimple on my face." - This tells us the size of the pimple.Doctor to patient: "Don't worry. You've ony got a few little pimples on your back." - This tells us how many pimples, AND what size they are!SOME NOUNS are always 'uncountable', such as sugar, flour, bacon, wine, hope, etc. To indicate a small amount, the word little can be used."Would you like a little brandy in your coffee?" NOT "Would you like a a few brandy in your coffee?"WITH 'COUNTABLE' nouns, the word few can be used is used."Few people are over 8 feet tall.", NOT "Little people are over 8 feet tall."!SUMMARY:'Few' means a small number and is used with plural countable nouns.'Little' means small. It also means a small un-numberable amount, and is used with uncountable nouns.More examples of usage:Some of us know a little* about a lot of things.*a small but uncountable amount(comment: knowledge is an uncountable noun)Some of us know a lot about a few* things.*a small number(comment: the noun 'things' is countable)But few of us know a little about everything.-----------------------Little did we suspect he had only a few dollars with him, though a few of us realized he'd contribute little towards the restaurant bill.Few of the items on the menu were cheap; we'd hoped he'd pay a little towards the total.----------------------The screen was very small; few could use a monitor as little as that.--------------------Jay grew fewer bananas (less in number) than Lee, but Lee's bananas were littler (smaller in size) than Jay's.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------For more information, see 'Related links' below.
Neither is correct. a little more time - eg I will give you a little more time to finish the exam. a few more times - eg Read it a few more times then answer the questions.
The correct grammar for the sentence is "Here are a few more." In this case, "few" is being used as a plural noun, so the verb "are" should also be plural to agree with it. Using "is" would be incorrect because it is singular and does not match the plural noun "few."
It would be little.
No, the correct phrase would be 'a little information' or 'a few pieces of information', or similar.'Information' is not a countable noun, therefore you cannot talk about 'a few' of it.The word 'few' must always be followed by a plural formation, or by nothing at all.
I could be wrong, but I think the question was to do with the use of the apostrophe (or not) after the word weeks. Am actually looking for that answer :-)
The word "moment" means a few seconds of time, or the force of motion.
No. A better choice would be: Would you mind waiting a few minutes?
"A few meters away from our home" is not a correct grammar but the correct one is "Few meters away from our home."
"Sprinkle a few herbs" is grammatically correct, but idiomatic speakers are more likely to say sprinkle some herbs.____There is a simple formula to use for this, it is illustrated with the following:"Pick up a few apples, and a little applesauce.""Herbs" is the simple plural of the word herb. Much like apples is the simple plural of apple. Therefore, the same adjective would be used, few.
few means more than two or also it is like the word couple or a bunch. So you can have a few french fries or you had to do a few chores.

"So few" is correct for things that may be counted.
