GRAMMAR
How much / How many
They are used to ask for quantities of something.
These expressions are always followed by a noun; then, the verb and the rest of
the sentence.
How many cars do you have?
How much money do you have?
They are also used generically to ask "how much is there". In this case, they are
followed by the noun and then, is / are there.
‘Many’ is used when we are talking about a plural noun. It is used for things you
can count, that is, for accounting things.
When we talk about ‘many’ and ‘much’, it is worth mentioning the countable and
uncountable nouns.
Accounting nouns can be used with a number and have a plural and singular
form. Countless nouns can only be used in the singular and cannot be used with
a number.
Examples:
“How much money do you have?”
“How many friends do you have?”
We can count money, however, we must use the precise currency (pesos, dollars,
euros) to use the word ‘many’.
‘Much’ and ‘many’ are often used with negative questions and clauses.
Examples:
“I don’t have many friends.”
“How much money did you spend last night?”
With positive clauses they are used with the words: ‘so’, ‘as’, or ‘too’.
Examples:
“I have so much homework tonight!”
“She has as many shoes as I do.”
“John worries too much.”
