不定代詞few、little的英語用法總結

在英語代詞中， few 與 little 作形容詞用，都表示“幾乎沒有”，相當於一個否定詞。它們具體的區別有以下幾個方面：
1、few 後面跟複數可數名詞。例如：
There are few books in his room.
There are few students in his class.

2、little 後面跟單數不可數名詞。例如：
He has few friends.
他沒有幾個朋友。
They has little money.
他們沒有什麼錢。

3、a few 與 a little 都表示肯定的意思，指“有一點，有一些”。
a few 後加可數名詞複數。例如：
I'm going to buy a few bananas.
a little 後加不可數名詞單數。
I can speak only a little Chinese.

4、a little 與 little 也可以用作副詞， 表示“有點”“稍稍” 表示“很少”.例如：
---Can you speak English?
----Yes, but only a little.
This book is a little more difficult than that one.（可修飾形容詞比較級）
She slept little last night.
昨天晚上，她沒有怎麼睡覺。

5、a few / a little 爲肯定含義，還有一點；few / little　爲否定含義，沒有多少了。例如：
He has a few friends.　他有幾個朋友。
He has few friends.　他幾乎沒有朋友。
We still have a little time. 我們還有點時間。
There is little time left.幾乎沒剩下什麼時間了。

6、我們來看看這個例句：
Although he 's wealthy，he spends___ on clothes.
A. little　B. few　C. a little　D. a few
答案：A. spend所指的是錢，不可數，只能用little或 a little. 本句爲although引導的讓步狀語從句，由句意知後句爲否定含義，因此應用little表示幾乎不。

7、固定搭配：only a few (=few）　not a few (=many）　quite a few (=many) many a (=many)
Many books were sold.
賣出了許多書。
