Quantifiers

A quantifier is a word or phrase which talks about the quantity of something without saying exactly the quantity. Some common quantifiers are:

  • Several
  • Plenty
  • a lot of
  • many
  • a few

As in these examples:

  • I made plenty of sandwiches for the picnic.
  • There are several beers in the fridge, so no worries.
