1.      The use of some and any

            The general rule is that any is used for questions and negatives while some is used for positive. Both may be used with countable and uncountable nouns. Some may also be used for questions, typically offers and requests, if we think the answer will be positive.

Example :

·         Some : They promote some of their new products.

·         Any : Do you have any idea to solve this loss problem?

2.      The use of much, many, a lot of, few and little

            Much may only be used with uncountable nouns while many is used with countable. Much and many also be used in questions if the speaker thinks that the answer will be positive. A lot of is used for positive. Little and few are quantifiers meaning ‘some’. Little and few have negative meanings. We used them to mean ‘not as much as may be expected or wished for’.

Example :

·         Much : How much does it cost to rent a bus?

·         Many : I see many people in the market to buy and sell the comodity.

·         A lot of : He said a lot of reasons why he came late to the meeting this morning.

·         Few : This company just has the few customers, so it will close.

·         Little : The office is very busy today. It seems we have little chance to meet Mr. Boss.

3.      The use of adjective

            Adjectives are used to identify or quantify individual people and unique things, they are usually positioned before the noun or pronoun that they modify. Some sentences contain multiple adjectives.

Example :

·         Before a noun : His job allows him to stay in expensive hotels.

·         After be :  Mr. Andrew is a good CEO, so other employees respect him very much.

·         After linking verb : The taste of the food from their restaurant is better than the other restaurants.

·         Objective compliment : The employees have to keep the company’s good name.

·         After someone / something : I am looking for something different for our new product.
