Less or Fewer





Less or Fewer : Grammar and Spelling Tips



Use the comparative form fewer with plural nouns.


Example:


• There are fewer people here than there were yesterday. --- This is a wrong sentence.


• There are less people here than there were yesterday. --- This is a right sentence.


Use less with uncountable nouns - that is, ones with no plural form.


Example:


• He has less money than I have.
