Hi Sokha! 'A few' is usually a very small number, like 2 or 3. 'Several' is a bit more than that, maybe 4, 5, or 6, but still not "many". It's just a way to be a little more specific! ✌️
Can I use 'many' in positive sentences? Like "I have many books."
Yes, you can! "I have many books" is completely correct grammatically. However, in everyday spoken English, native speakers often prefer to say "I have a lot of books" for positive sentences, and keep "many" for questions and negative sentences ("Do you have many books?" / "I don't have many books"). 📚
Is 'money' countable? Can I say 'many money'?
No! The word 'money' is uncountable. We say "much money" or "a lot of money". We can count coins, bills, dollars, and riels, but the word 'money' itself is always uncountable! 💵
