Explanation:
Fewer is used for things that can be counted such as, kids, chairs, balloons, etc...
Less is used for singular mass nouns
Here’s a tip: A good way to test that a noun is truly uncountable is to try making a plural out of it.
<u>Example:</u> I told Cookie Monster to drink fewer/less <em><u>milks</u></em> or he would get sick?
Because Milk is a liquid, we can't count it. Making 'less' the proper word choice
<u>Example:</u> I told Cookie Monster to drink <u><em>less</em></u> milk or he would get sick?
I hope this helped!
I don't know what you're talking about... sorry... (no offense)
A metaphor compares two unlike things without using 'like' or 'as'. Example: Happiness is a warm puppy. Happiness (an abstract concept) is being compared to a puppy (a physical object).
