few、a few、little、a little的區別

哪個接可數哪個接不可數、哪個是肯定哪個是否定

a little 不可数名次 用于肯定 表有些 有几分
a few 可数名次复数 用于肯定 表有

few; little: few 单独使用时意思为否定，意为几乎没有。A few在意义上是肯定的， 意为几个。Little 在单独用时也作否定用，意特为几乎没有。A little 则为肯定含义，意为一点点。但是，few; a few修饰可数名词，little; a little修饰不可数名词。

few和a few都是修饰可数名词的，后面加复数

little和a little都是修饰不可数名词的，后面加不可数名词

few和little是否定词，表示“很少”

a few和a little是肯定词，表示“一些”

a little也可以表示程度，如She likes English a little.

few, a few, little, a little 虽然都表示“少”，但 （1）few, a few修饰可数的, little, a little修饰不可数的。 （2）a few, a little含肯定意味，few, little含否定意味

few、a few、可數

little、a little不可數

a few,a little肯定

few ,little否定

(a) few 可数 （a） little 不可数

a ... 肯定 不加a 的否定

few, a few, little, a little 虽然都表示“少”，但 （1）few, a few是可数的, little, a little是不可数的。 （2）a few, a little含肯定意味，few, little含否定意味。这里所谓的“肯定意味”和“否定意味”应该这样来理解：同样是半杯水，口渴者会认为：There is little water in the glass. 而不口渴的人则会认为：There is a little water in the glass. 一： 1．few修饰可数名词复数。 2．few (= not many; hardly any)含否定意义；a few (= some; several; a small number of) 含肯定意义。 3． not a few = no few = quite a few = a good few = many。 4． 当 few受 every, last, past, next, some, very等词所修饰时，表示肯定意义，few之前不再有冠词。如： In the last few minutes, he checked up his paper again. It took us some few days to repair the machine. They are very few in number. There were too few of them. He goes to see his grandma every few weeks. 5． 在非正式文体中很少见，一般用或代替，如： Only a few people attended the meeting. 另外，little / a little Little remains to be done about it. (作主语) A little remains to be done. Please give me a little. (作宾语) He knows a little of everything. There is very / but little time left. (作定语) Don’t worry; you still have a little time. 1． little修饰不可数名词，表示“量”。 2． little含否定意义(反义词：much)；a little含肯定意义(反义词：none)。 3． 在非正式英语中，一般很少用little，常用not much, only a little来代替，如： We haven’t got much money / time.
