Some / a lot of / lots of

7/26
Recursos

Usamos some, a lot of y lots of con sustantivos contables, incontables, así como en oraciones afirmativas, negativas y hasta en preguntas.

¿Qué significa Some / a lot of / lots of?

  • Some: un número o cantidad indeterminada de algo
  • A lot of / lots of: un gran número o cantidad de algo

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre a lot of y lots of?

Afortunadamente, hay una buena noticia: son iguales. Puedes utilizar cualquiera y tendrán el mismo significado. La única diferencia que podemos destacar es que lots of es más informal que a lot of. Lots of es como una abreviación que empleas con tus amigos, como I’m y I am.

Veamos algunos ejemplos en que podemos usar cada una:

  • I saw some police officers in front of your house. / He visto a algunos policías delante de su casa.
  • There are a lot of / lots of people here. / Hay mucha gente aquí.
  • Would you like some coffee? / ¿Te gustaría algo de café?

  • We can use a lot of and lots of interchangeably. They mean the same.

words “some”, “a lot of” and “lots of”. In what contexts can these words be used? you can use them with both countable and uncountable nouns.
