Сначала о главном, да о грамматике, без неё никуда.
(a) few – используется с исчисляемыми существительными: cats, dogs…
(a) little – соответственно с неисчисляемыми: milk, money…
Когда же использовать few/little, а когда a few/a little?
Здесь весь фокус в том, какой смысл мы вкладываем в предложение:
a few – немного, несколько, но есть// few – очень мало, почти нет.
a little - немного, но есть// little - очень мало, почти нет.
Возьмём первый пример:
1. Не has got a few friends – у него есть несколько друзей
1. Не has got few friends – у него почти нет друзей
Почувствовала разницу?
А дальше можно так:
2. I drink little coffee. I don’t like it.
3. We must hurry. We’ve got very little time.
4. There are very few scholarships for students in this university.
5. The Smiths have a little money. They aren’t rich.
6. The theatre was almost empty. There were very few people there. (a person-people=plural noun)
7. There was (a) little lemonade in the bottle. There were (a) few peaches in the basket.
8. I have little time, so I can’t go with you. (time – uncountable/ может быть исчисляемым в значении «сколько раз – how many times»)
9. There is little ink in my pen. Have you got any ink?
10. There are a few bears in the zoo.(хочется надеяться, что a few, а не few)
Комментарий: в выражения very little и very few артикль не используется, но если другими словами, то по значению very little = little,а very few = few.
Good Luck!
