Unit 6 · Quote
""Our fridge has plenty of food and hardly any dinners. That's the modern paradox in one shelf.""
— Quantifiers aren't just numbers — they're small opinions about 'enough'.
Lesson goals

By the end you will…

  • Use a wider range of quantifiers naturally: plenty of, several, a couple of, a great deal of, loads of, hardly any, few / a few, little / a little.
  • Choose the right quantifier for countable and uncountable nouns, and match register (neutral vs. informal).
  • Notice the meaning gap between 'few / little' (negative) and 'a few / a little' (positive).
  • Write a 90–110 word paragraph honestly describing what you have plenty of, hardly any of, and just enough of in your life right now.
