Привет, Друзья! Как не запутаться, используя much и many? Просто обратите внимание на правила употребления, ведь англичане неслучайно придумали два слова с одинаковым значением.

Они не являются взаимозаменяемыми: в одних случаях вам понадобится только much, а в других – только many. Здесь всё зависит от самого слова, к которому будет относиться much или many. Давайте разбираться, что к чему!

Разница между many и much

Местоимение many употребляется в тех случаях, когда оно относится к предметам (одушевленным или неодушевленным), которые можно посчитать. Слова, обозначающие такие предметы, называются исчисляемыми существительными.

many children – много детей
many people — много людей
many tigers — много тигров

используем many (так как их можно посчитать)

Местоимение Much употребляется только с существительными, которые нельзя сосчитать, то есть с неисчисляемыми существительными.

much sugar (много сахара)
much water (много воды)
much money (много денег)

используем much (так как их нельзя сосчитать. Much означает большое количество чего-либо.)

Смотрим таблицу, которая вам наглядно покажет разницу употребления Much, Many

Much /Little (много/мало)	Many /Few (много/мало)	A lot of / Plenty of (много)
Неисчисляемые существительные	Исчисляемые существительные	Исчисляемые и несчисляемые существительные
How much money have you got ? – Как много у тебя денег? There is little ink left in my pen . – В моей ручке осталось немного чернил.	I have many friends . – У меня много друзей. He has got few best friends . – У него несколько (немного) лучших друзей.	There is a lot of sugar there . – Там много сахара. There are plenty of plants in the garden . – В саду много растений.

Many употребляется там, где предметы можно посчитать поштучно.
Если же они счету не поддаются, смело вставляйте в предложение слово much .

Вопросительные предложения

How much sugar do you take in your coffee?
Сколько сахара ты кладешь в кофе?
How much money do you want for this?
Сколько (денег) ты за это хочешь?
Do you have much work to do?
У тебя много работы?
How many students are there in each class?
Сколько учеников в каждом классе?
How many people are you expecting?
Сколько человек ты ожидаешь?

Отрицательные предложения

He doesn’t earn much money (существительное money — неисчисляемое).
Он зарабатывает мало (= немного) денег.
Not many people have heard of her (существительное people — исчисляемое).
