Example:
How much money have you got?
Carla does not have many friends.
In positive clauses with so, as or too, we also use much / many.
Example:
Carla has so many friends.
She has as many friends as Sue.
Kevin has too much money.
In all other positive clauses, however, we prefer expressions like a lot of / lots of.
Example:
Carla has a lot of / lots of friends.
Kevin has a lot of / lots of money.
In formal texts, however, much / many are also common in positive clauses. This you will notice for example when
you read English news.
Example:
100 friends many friends
Uncountable nouns can only be used in singular. These nouns cannot be used with a number (that's why they are
called 'uncountable nouns'). Uncountable nouns take much.
