Using Adjectives 1. Know how to use “less” and “least.” •Sometimes a comparison has to do with less of something – not more. Then, instead of more or most, you use less or least. 2. Know the difference between “fewer” and “less.” •The adjectives fewer and less mean just about the same thing. •However, fewer counts separate items, and less measures the amount of substance. •Use fewer with plural nouns. •Use less with singular nouns •Examples: –Plural: Which class has fewer students? –Singular: Which bread has less sugar?
