Today we are going to continue working with quantifiers. Let's remember what we learnt about SOME, ANY, HOW MUCH, HOW MANY in previous levels.

GRAMMAR

SOME (algunos, algunas, algo de)

• Se usa some para frases afirmativas y para ofrecer o pedir algo. Se habla de una cantidad o un número, no importa si es contable (y plural) o incontable:

There are some new people in my English class. (plural contable)

I bought some new shoes. (plural contable)

There is some milk in the fridge. (incontable)

• Se usa some con un sustantivo para ofrecer algo – tanto incontable como plural y contable – en una pregunta.

Would you like some tea?

Do you want some soup?

I’ve got a lot of apples. Do you want some?

• También se usa some para pedir algo. Específicamente, algo incontable o plural.

Could you give me some books to read on vacation?

Can I have some coffee?

Could you give me some help with this?

ANY (ningún, ninguna, nada de, algun, algunos)

Any se usa en oraciones negativas para sustantivos incontables y contables en plural, y también para preguntas que no son ni ofertas ni pedidos.

There aren’t any good films on TV. 

Are there any good restaurants in this city? 

Do you have any money? 

HOW MUCH – HOW MANY

How much y how many son usados en preguntas.

• How much = cuánto (se usa para preguntar la cantidad de un sustantivo incontable)

How much water is there in the bottle?

• How many = cuántos (se usa para preguntar el número de un sustantivo contable).
