less的翻譯是“少”，那么less可以用來修飾什么呢

又到了為小伙伴們解惑的時(shí)候了✺◟(∗❛ัᴗ❛ั∗)◞✺，less通常用于描述不可數(shù)名詞即單個(gè)、整體或抽象的事物數(shù)量上的減少，fewer常用來比較可數(shù)名詞，即數(shù)量較少的獨(dú)立個(gè)體或?qū)嶓w，而 little一詞是說不可數(shù)名詞的較小量，常常用來表達(dá)幾乎沒有。這里就給大家總結(jié)了一個(gè)它們基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)的表格，可以先簡單了解一下先：

了解完它們的基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)后，現(xiàn)在就來看看它們的具體區(qū)別吧ლ(・∀・ )ლ

區(qū)別一：用法上的區(qū)別

less通常用于描述不可數(shù)名詞即單個(gè)、整體或抽象的事物數(shù)量上的減少，fewer常用來比較可數(shù)名詞，即數(shù)量較少的獨(dú)立個(gè)體或?qū)嶓w，而 little一詞是說不可數(shù)名詞的較小量，常常用來表達(dá)幾乎沒有。

例句：

①There is less water in the bottle than there was before. 瓶子里的水比之前少。

②There are fewer apples in the basket than before. 籃子里的蘋果比以前少。

③Little knowledge is dangerous. 知識(shí)少是危險(xiǎn)的。

區(qū)別二：程度上的差別

less和fewer在比較上有具體的數(shù)量上的減少要求，需要有一個(gè)可比較的基準(zhǔn)。little則在程度上更強(qiáng)調(diào)幾乎沒有或僅有一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)，沒有明確的基準(zhǔn)量進(jìn)行比較。

例句：

①I have less time than I thought to finish this project. 我完成這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的時(shí)間比我想象中的要少。

②We have fewer resources than we expected for this task. 我們做這個(gè)任務(wù)的資源比我們預(yù)期的要少。

③There's little hope of getting any help. 得到任何幫助的希望幾乎沒有。

區(qū)別三：對(duì)數(shù)量的限制不同

在描述數(shù)量時(shí)，less和fewer雖然都表示更少，但less通常指的是一種不可數(shù)的、無法精確計(jì)量的少（如液體、時(shí)間、能量等），fewer則用于可以精確計(jì)數(shù)的較少數(shù)量(如蘋果、人、日子等)。與之不同，little一詞通常表達(dá)的是對(duì)數(shù)量的極限——幾乎沒有或很小的數(shù)量。

例句：

①There's less milk in the refrigerator. 冰箱里的牛奶少了。

②There were fewer students in the class today. 今天課上的學(xué)生少了。

③I have little money in my wallet. 我錢包里的錢幾乎沒有了。
