Recursos

Si aún no conoces tu nivel de inglés, ve a nuestro Test de Inglés de Platzi y conócelo en minutos. 🚀

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?
  • I didn’t have** a lot of / lots of** time to finish the exam. / No tuve mucho tiempo para terminar el examen.
  • He drinks a lot of / lots of water. / El bebe mucha agua.
  • He is drinking some water. / Él está bebiendo un poco de agua.

You can indeed use "a lot of" and "lots of" to refer to a large number or amount of something, both with countable and uncountable nouns. The statement in your quiz is true. If the quiz marked your answer as false, there might be a misunderstanding or error in the quiz itself. Remember, "a lot of" and "lots of" are interchangeable, and you can use them in affirmative sentences, questions, and negative sentences.
