En primer lugar
veremos cuándo usar FEWER (menos).
Debemos utilizar
FEWER cuando nos referimos a personas o cosas en
plural (niños, profesores, libros, coches...). Por
ejemplo:
There are
fewer teachers than children
(Hay menos
profesores que niños)
Otra manera de
expresar esa idea es utilizando NOT AS MANY AS =
no tantos como. Por ejemplo
There aren't
as many teachers as children
(No hay
tantos profesores como niños)
