No entiendo por que esta respuesta está incorrecta. ¿Pueden ayudarme a enterder porque?
How much sugar would you like in your coffee? Select the best answer.

Hola Tambien tengo la misma duda en esa pregunta, lo que yo creo y consulte en Internet es que bit se puede usar para items mas pequeños en este caso los granitos de azucar.
Tome esta definicion de Internet:
""Bit" es una forma de "bit", un sustantivo que se puede traducir como "el pedazo". "Little" es un adjetivo que se puede traducir como "pequeño". Aprende más sobre la diferencia entre "bit" y "little" a continuación."
Yo también respondí lo mismo y vine a revisar porque había sido error. Al ver los ejemplos me di cuenta que "A little" se usa sin "of" después. El ejemplo que pone es There is a little milk left. You don't need to buy more. En cambio al usar "A bit" si se usa el "of". El ejemplo es: Of cors you can have a bit of cake. Supongo que en el caso de la respueste de la respuesta del examen para que sea correcta debería ser "A little sugar" , y por lo tanto la única que es correcta es "A bit of sugar"
It had always been difficult for me to understand why money is not contable unitl I get at this class. great course, really :D
Because the word "money" is the generic word for all kind the active that you can transfer. The specific words are bills or coins, that you can count them.
Great work!!!
My iPad has a little charge left. There is a little ice cream in the fridge. Can you buy a few apples please? I'm a bit nervous to be honest. I want a few of those too.
Interesting!
if I want to say "" con un poco de azucar, gracias" the right way to say it is
It depends, because in some countries the sugar units are little cubes. In that case you can say
. However in Latam that doesn't happen, therefore, you can say:
. In conclusion, your 2 options are correct, because it's uncountable, but it depends, for sure
In the teacher's example, he don't use "of" after "little", I think that the correct sentence is "A little sugar" not "A little of sugar"
i have a quiestion, why cake in the example is an uncontable noun? But cake, it's not a contable noun, because i can say: plz give me 2 cakes, or in other words, you can know that a word is contable if you can use the prural form of the word!
Plz could you give a light, because now i confuse.
That´s interesting because cake can be a countable noun when you´re talking about a phisical cake, like a weeding cake. But it´s uncountable when you talk about cake as a concept, for example: there are cake on the table; in that case cake could be three, five or a few pieces of cake.
My question is, when is necesary to put the "of" after "a bit/ a little"? in my mind is always mandatory, but I can tell that is not totally true
Is not mandatory. You can use others connectors. :)
A Bit/ A little/ A few
Quantify

When do we have to use bit and when we use little? and ckeck this question please
why is incorrect say: " I want a little of suggar"
what is the difference to say a little, bit, or the complete sentence "a little bit "?
Hi! When we use "little," "bit," "a little bit," alone, they all mean "a small amount". However, "little bit" serves to emphasize how small is that amount/part/piece.
