「学英语」Howmany和Howmuch
When we want to know the quantity or amount of something, we ask questions starting with How much and How many.
当我们想知道某物的数量时，我们经常以How much和How many开头.
HOW MUCH ...? - (数量)
How much用于不可数名词。

HOW MUCH + 不可数名词
•How much time do we have to finish
the test?
•How much money did you spend?
•How much sugar would you like in
your coffee?
•How much paper will I need?
•How much milk is in the fridge?
•How much traffic was there on the
way to work?
If the verb To Be is used with an uncountable noun, it is in singular form (= IS or WAS etc.)
如果动词To be用于一个非可数名词，它应该是单数形式（=IS或WAS等）。

HOW MUCH ...? - (价格)
How much can also be used when we want to know the PRICE of something.
当我们想知道某物的价格时，我也可以用How much。

In this case, we can use How much with countable nouns (both singular and plural nouns).
在这种情况下，我们可以将How much与可数名词连用（可以是单数形式也可以是复数形式）。

•How much is that painting?
•How much are those shoes?
•How much did your jacket cost?
•How much is the dress on display in
the window?
•How much will it cost me?
•How much does it cost ?
HOW MANY ...? - (数量)
How many is used when we want to know the QUANTITY of something.
当我们想知道某物的数量时，我们用How many。

It is only used with plural countable nouns.
这时只能使用可数名词的复数形式。

HOW MANY + 复数形式的可数名词
•How many days are there in January?
•How many people work in your
company?
•How many cousins do you have?
•How many books did you buy?
•How many countries are there in the
world?
•How many students are in the class
right now?
•How many chairs are there in this
room?
•How many pieces of chocolate would
you like?
Omitting the noun 省掉名词
Often the noun is omitted in the question when it is obvious what we are talking about.
当很明显知道我们谈论的是什么时，谈论的对象（名词）通常可以在问句中省略。

A: I would like to buy some cheese.
B: How much (cheese) would you like?
The noun cheese is not necessary after how much since we already know we are talking about cheese. In fact, it is normally omitted to avoid sounding repetitive.
how much后的这个名词cheese是不必要的，因为我们已经知道我们在谈论cheese。

实际上，这也是正常的，这是为了避免听起来重复。

•A: I need some coins.
•B: How many do you need?
•A: I need some sugar.
•B: How much do you need?。
