Much and many

We can use much and many to talk about quantities. We can also use a lot of or lots of.

Do you get much homework?
I've got a lot of games.

How to use them

We usually use a lot of or lots of in positive sentences.

A lot of people were at the party.
There's lots of information on this website.

For things we can count, we use many or a lot of (or lots of) in negative sentences and questions.

Do you have a lot of friends?

For things we can't count, we use much or a lot of (or lots of) in negative sentences and questions.

Do you drink much milk?

To ask about quantities, we use how many for things we can count and how much for things we can't count.
