「few」與「not many」皆表示「不多」的意思。「a few」與「some」皆表示「一些」的意思。另外,「few」帶有否定語氣,「a few」帶有肯定語氣,可依據上下文來判斷其意思。在口語對話中,若於句子開頭使用「a few」,有時會省略「a」。 例:In our school, few people are interested in the idea of a camping trip.(在我們學校,很少人對參加露營感興趣。)=>感興趣的人不多 = In our school, a few people are interested in the idea of a camping trip. (在我們學校,不少人對參加露營感興趣。)=> 感興趣的人多 例: Few things you should know: the cafe opens at ten, so be here at nine. (有幾件事你應該要知道:咖啡廳十點開門,請你九點到這裡。) =>省略「a」 例:There are very few supplies in the cupboard.(櫥櫃中的日用品很少。) => 日用品不多 = There are a few supplies in the cupboard. (櫥櫃中的還有一些日用品。)=> 有一些日用品
