UNIT 3: BUTTER IT UP!

LESSON 01: A LEMON!

Write it down!

What do you What do you want to What have you

know about know about articles? learned about
articles? it?

An article is a word that goes before a noun, giving some basic

information about the noun, such as if it singular or plural, or if the
object is specific or general.

INDEFINITE ARTICLES - A/ AN

We must to use an indefinite article in English when referring to

something for the first time; It can also indicate a general thing, that
is, something that is not specific or it can be used to describe a
person’s profession.

Having a car is great so I don’t He is an architect.

have to take public
transportation.
Notice that in the first sentence you say “a car” and i the second “an
architect”. But, what is the difference between them?
That’s simple! Use “a” before singular, countable nouns which start
with consonant sounds , and “an” before singular, countable nouns
that begin with vowel sounds.

Examples:

● He is a professor. ● He is an engineer.
● She went to buy a new car. ● She went to buy an uniform.
● I saw a bear at the zoo. ● I saw an eagle right there.
● He is a nice guy.. ● He is an incredible actor.

Use "an" before a silent or unsounded h. It

happens because the "h" does not have any
phonetic representation or audible sound, the
sound that follows the article is a vowel;
therefore, "an" is used.

● An honorable peace
● An honest error

Examples:

● Blue Ive is an heir of a huge fortune.

● Meet me in an hour.
● Don’t worry about that. It was just an honest error.
 When "u" makes the same sound as the y in "you," or "o"
makes the same sound as w in "won," then “a” is used. The
word-initial "y" sound ("unicorn") is a glide [j] phonetically,
which has consonantal properties; consequently, it is
treated as a consonant, requiring "a."

● A union (“younion”)
● A united front (“younited”)
● A unicorn (“younicorn”)
● A used napkin (“yoused”)
● A U.S. ship (“you”)
● A one-legged man (“wone”)

Examples:

● Daisy asked a unicorn for her 4th birthday.

● Accidentally she cleaned her mouth with a used napkin.
● A U.S ship is about to board in fifteen minutes.
● He played a one-legged man.

DEFINITE ARTICLE - THE

The definite article in English is “the”. We can use it with singular

and plural nouns when we have already identified the noun we are
referring to, when there’ is only one of this thing (something
specific), and in certain expressions related to physical things such
as “the weather”, “the sea”, “the environment”.
The weather is snowy today.

Can you turn on the television?

The shopping bags are still in the car.

The students are ready to start the test.

 The can be used with uncountable nouns, or the article can
be omitted entirely.

● "I love to sail over the water" (some specific body of

water) or "I love to sail over water" (any water).

● "He spilled the milk all over the floor" (some specific
milk, perhaps the milk you bought earlier that day) or
"He spilled milk all over the floor" (any milk).

USEFUL EXPRESSIONS

1. A COUPLE
● Two things or people of the same kind (same as: a few, a couple
of):

There are a
couple of girls
waiting for you.

● A small number of things.

You’ll be all
right in a
couple of days.
2. IN A COUPLE OF SHAKES/TWO SHAKES
● Very soon - informal.

I’ll be back in
two shakes
of a fist.

3. A BREATH OF FRESH AIR

● Something that is new and different in a way you think is
exciting and good.

This play will

be a breath
of fresh air to
this theater.

● Clean air outside., that you need after benign inside for a long
time.

It’s too hot in

here. I need a
breath of
fresh air.
Real examples:

● “The Taliban shot me on the left side of my forehead.” - Malala

Yousafzai Speech, 2013
● “I’d like to thank NYU for making me, technically, on paper at
least, a doctor.” - NYU’s 2022 Commencement Speaker Taylor
Swift
● “A few months ago we introduced the ability for you to choose
an option where we would upload your photos.” - Google I/O
2013: Keynote.
LESSON 02: A PINCH OF SALT!

WHICH ONE IS CORRECT?

I’d like a milk. I’d like a glass of milk

Well done! Only the second sentence is correct. “Milk”, such as other
liquids, is impossible to count, but “glass” is countable, so you can
ask for a glass of milk, water, juice, etc.

COUNTABLE NOUNS

Used for things we can count using numbers. They have a singular
and a plural form.

One person Two people

One dog Two dogs

One man Two TVs

One idea Two men

One strawberry Two ideas

One TV Two strawberries

One cup Two cups

One window Two windows

Examples:
● She has three dogs. ● Are you friends?
● I own a house. ● I’ve got an idea.
● I read two books this week. ● I need two TVs.
UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS

Used for things we can cannot count with numbers.

Most uncountable nouns refer to intangible concepts or abstract
ideas. Because these things don’t actually exists as material objects, it
would usually be impossible to count them. Check out some
examples:

Emotions:
sadness, anger, enthusiasm, hesitation,
unease
Qualities:
bravery, shyness, cowardice, agility,
intelligence, pride
Ideas:
chaos, peace, anarchy, nihilism, capitalism
Foods:
water, milk, bread, honey, sugar, meat,
pork
Weather:
rain, snow, fog, hail, lightning, thunder,
sleet
Collective nouns:
furniture, clothing, equipment, machinery
Chemical elements:
hydrogen, oxygen, gold, uranium
Examples:
● There has been a lot of research into the causes of this disease.
● He gave me a great deal of advice before my interview.
● Can you give me some information about uncountable nouns?
● He did not have much sugar left.
● Measure 1 cup of water, 300g of flour, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
● How much rice do you want?

More uncountable nouns you are likely to see

aggression, coarseness, calmness, dedication,

entertainment, fun, gratitude, help, isolation, junk,
kleptomania, laziness, mustard, news, originality,
patience, quiet, rice, stuff, traffic, ugliness, vastness,
wanderlust, yoga, zest

REMINDER!
Many words have multiple meanings so a noun may be an
uncountable noun or not depending on context.

1. Uncountable noun the chemical

element (a molecule doesn’t have
three irons).
2. Countable noun appliance used to
get wrinkles out of clothing (you can
buy three irons at the store).
TRICKY SPOTS
Some words might be countable in other languages and
uncountable in English. Some of them are:
accommodations, advice, baggage, behavior, bread, furniture,
information, luggage, news, progress, traffic, travel, trouble,
weather, work.

Examples:
● I would like to give you some advice.
● How much bread should I bring?
● I didn't make much progress today.
● This looks like a lot of trouble to me.
● We did an hour of work yesterday.

Take a look at the noun “hair”, which

is usually uncountable, so it is used
in the plural form, but it can be
countable only when referring to
individual hairs.

● I washed my hair yesterday.

● My father is getting a few gray hairs now. (refers to individual
hairs)
● I found a hair in my soup! (refers to a single strand of hair)
LESSON 02: I HAVE A LOT ON MY PLATE!
A large amount or number of people or things can be described as: “a
lot of/lots of”.

A LOT OF

Used for countable and uncountable nouns. It doesn’t matter if the

words i is in the singular or plural form.
● A lot of animals. are dying out.
● A lot of babies were born this year.
● A lot of students didn’t return to class after lunch.

LOTS OF

Same uses as “a lot of”, but it sound more informal.

● Lots of computers in the lab are broken.
● Lots of parties were canceled because of the pandemic.
● I spent lots of energy working out this morning.

Examples:
● Does she have a lot of money?
● Lots of people went to the game.
● We have lots of time to get it finished.
● A lot of snow falls in winter.
A LOT

In this case, it means intensity, that is, very often or very much. It is
used as an adverb. It often comes at the end of a sentence and never
before a noun.

A: Hey, do you like beer? A: Why are you so tired?

B: Yes, I do” I like a lot! B: I worked a lot today.

Examples:
● I like basketball a lot.
● She's a lot happier now than she was.

LESSON 03: NO ONE!
Compare the following sentences:

He’s got some homework.

He hasn’t got any homework.

Has he got any homework?

Any is more common in

questions but we can use
some when we are
expecting the answer to be
‘yes’.

ANY

We use any before nouns to refer to indefinite or unknown

quantities or unlimited entity. It can be used before both countable
nouns and uncountable ones.

Are there any waiters available? I don't have any homework to do.
Examples:
● Did you bring any bread?
● Mr Jacobson refused to answer any questions.
● If I were able to travel back to any place and time in history, I
would go to ancient China..

Any as a determiner has two forms: a strong form and a weak form.
The forms have different meanings.

WEAK FORM
❏ We use any for indefinite quantities in questions and negative
sentences - (We use some in affirmative sentences).

❏ Indefinite quantities.

❏ We use weak form any only with uncountable nouns or with

plural nouns.

Examples: We don’t use the weak any

● Have you got any eggs? with singular countable nouns.
Say:
● I haven’t got any eggs. “Have you got any Italian cook
● I’ve got some eggs. books?”
And not:
● Do I need to get any petrol? “Have you got any Italian
● There aren’t any clean knives.. cookery book?”

Notice: Do not say “I’ve got

any eggs. Instead of that use
“some”
STRONG FORM
❏ Meaning: ‘it doesn't matter which’ or ‘what’
❏ We use any to describe something which is not limited.
❏ We use this meaning of any with all types of nouns and usually
in affirmative sentences.
❏ In speaking we often stress any

Examples:
● Call 0800675-437 for any information about the courses.
● When you make a late booking, you don’t know where you’re
going to go, do you? It could be any destination.
● Do we have any form of agreement with new staff when they
start?
● A: I don’t think I’ve ever seen you paint such a beautiful picture
before. Gosh! Did you choose the colors?
B: We could choose any colors we wanted.

“ANY” AS A PRONOUN
Any can be used as pronoun that is, without following a noun. I t
happens when the noun is understood.

In this case, it is
A: Have you got some £1 coins on you?
understood that
B: Sorry, I don’t think I have any. the person doesn’t
have any required
coins.
Examples:
● A: Do you find that Elizabeth gets lots of homework? Marie gets
a lot.
B: No, not really. She gets hardly any.

● A: What did you think of the cake? It was delicious, wasn’t it?
B: I don’t know. I didn’t get any.

ANY OF
We use any with of before articles (a/an, the), demonstratives (this,
these), pronouns (you, us) or possessives (his, their) We can also use it
to refer to a part of a whole.

Examples:
● Shall I keep any of these spices? I think they’re all out of date.
● Are any of you going to the meeting?
● I couldn’t answer any of these questions.
● I listen to Abba but I’ve never bought any of their music.

NOT ANY X NO
Any doesn’t have a negative meaning on its own. It must be used
with a negative word to mean the same as no.
No in the right-hand column give greater emphasis than the
examples with not any.

There aren’t any biscuits left. There are no biscuits left.

They’ve eaten them all. They’ve eaten them all.
❏ We don’t use not with some, someone, somebody, something,
somewhere in statements. We use: any, anyone, anybody,
anything, anywhere.
❏ After verbs with a negative meaning like decline or refuse, we
use anything rather than something.

Examples:
● There aren’t any seats left. You’ll have to stand.
● Tell them I don’t want to see anyone.
● They refused to tell us anything about it.

ANYONE, ANYBODY, OR ANYTHING?

❏ Anyone, anybody and anything are indefinite pronouns.

❏ We use anyone, anybody and anything to refer to both an open,
unlimited set of things or people and specific things or people.
❏ We use them with a singular verb.

Examples:
● Has anyone got a dictionary?
● Anybody is welcome to join. There aren’t any rules.
● Can I do anything to help?
● I don’t know anybody who speaks Portuguese here.
❏ We often use the plural pronoun they to refer back to (singular)
anyone when we do not know if the person is male or female.
❏ Remember: anything, anyone, anybody don’t have a negative
meaning on their own.

Examples:
● If anyone would like further information about the dogs, they
should call Canine Rescue on 0502 75257.
● We stayed in Seville for the rest of our holidays. No one wanted
to come back, but we had to.

ANYONE x ANYBODY

Anyone and anybody have no difference in meaning.

Anybody is a little less formal than anyone. Anyone is used
more in writing than anybody:

● I didn’t know anybody at the party.

● It is hard to find anyone who thinks that they will face
a stronger team.

Can I have some coffee? I there any milk?

USEFUL SENTENCES

● Do we have any beer? - Yes, it's in the fridge.

● Do we have any glasses? - Yes, they're in the cupboard.
● Have you got any vases for the flowers? - Not, yet.

LESSON 03: SOME PEOPLE!

THE USE OF SOME

Although the quantity is not important or not defined, using some
implies a limited quantity. It can be defined as:

❏ An amount or number of something that is not stated or not

known;
❏ A part of something;
❏ Used to refer to a particular person or thing without stating
exactly which one;
❏ Used before a noun to show how good something or someone
is;
Some can be used before countable nouns as well as uncountable
ones.

COUNTABLE NOUNS UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS

some tables some time

some stores some news
some grapes some bread
some cities some salt
some nurses some mail
Examples:

● There's some cake in the kitchen if you'd like it.

● It was some years later when they next met.
● Some idiots locked the door!
● Some people just don't know when to shut up.
● Wow, that was some dinner!

Some, just as “any” also has its weak and strong form.

WEAK FORM
❏ Affirmative sentences + questions (usually expecting the answer
‘yes’).

❏ When the quantity is indefinite or not important.

❏ We use the weak form of some only with uncountable nouns

and plural nouns.

Examples:

● I’ve got some /səm/ water.

● Have you got some water? (expecting the answer yes)
● I’m looking for some advice. (uncountable noun)
● Do you need some help? (uncountable noun)
● We need to make some changes here. (plural noun)
WARNING

We don’t use weak some with singular countable nouns:

● If you’re looking for a book to read, I can recommend ‘Animal

Farm’.

Not: If you’re looking for some book to read…

STRONG FORM
● The strong form of some is stressed. This form contrasts with
others or all or enough.

● We can use it to refer to someone or something particular but

unknown, especially with singular countable nouns.

● We use the strong form of some with numbers. It can suggest

an unexpectedly high amount.

Examples:
● Why do some people live longer than other people?
● Some boys went to the front of the stage to get a better view.
The rest of us couldn’t see a thing.
● There were some cakes left, but not enough for everyone.
● There must be some way of opening this printer!
● Some £30 billion was needed to rebuild the hospital.

❏ We don’t use some when we are talking about

things or people in general, when we have no
idea of number or quantity

❏ We don’t use some for large or unlimited

quantities and amounts
Examples:
● Rats make good pets. (Rats in general)
● There were some rats in the kitchen. (a number of rats)
● Does your car run on petrol or diesel? (general)
● I need some petrol. (specific petrol)
● The earthquake victims urgently need tents, blankets and water.
(Not some tents, some blankets and some water)

“SOME” AS A PRONOUN
We use some as a pronoun (i.e., without a noun following) when the
noun is understood:

● If you need any money, I’ll lend you some.

● French mustard are usually flavored with spices. Some have
added sugar. Some are quite salt.

We use some of to refer to a part of a whole:

➔ I wasn’t sure about some of the answers.
➔ It was great to meet some of her friends and colleagues.
➔ First a look at some of today’s main stories in some more detail.
 SOMEONE, SOMEBODY, SOMETHING, SOMEWHERE

❏ We can use them to refer to both general and specific people or

things.
❏ We use them with a singular verb.
❏ They function in a similar way to some.
❏ We use them in affirmative clauses and in questions expecting a
particular answer.

Examples:

● I know someone who gives piano lessons.

● Somebody has obviously made a mistake.
● Can you hear something?
● There was no mistaking the smell. Burning. There was a fire
somewhere.

We often use the plural pronoun they to refer back to

(singular) someone or somebody when we do not
know if the person is male or female:

● Never judge someone by the way they look.

 SOMETHING AND
ANYTHING

We can use both something and anything in

negative questions. They have different meanings:

● Didn’t she bring something to eat?

● Didn’t she bring anything to eat?

USEFUL QUESTIONS
● Would you like some more?
● What do you say about some...?
● Can I get you some more wine?
● Would you like me to get you some...?
● Would you like some dessert?
● How about some...?
● Can you give some information about the city?
● May I offer you some...?

LESSON 04: A LITTLE BIT MORE!

CAN YOU GUESS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THESE SENTENCES?

A: Have you got any money?

B: Yes, a little.

A: Have you got any money?

B: No, very little.

That is right! In the first sentence it is understandable that they got

some small amount of money, and in the second they don’t have
much, or almost no money at all.
Both, little and a little are two quantifiers.

Quantifiers are a type

of determiner which
denote imprecise
quantity. They modify
nouns or pronouns.

A LITTLE A LITTLE
● A small amount that is ● Refers to hardly any,
enough to do something. almost nothing.
● A little = some. ● Little = not much.
Both are used with singular uncountable nouns.

Examples with “a little”

● She saves a little money every month.
● Mary said nothing, but she drank some tea and ate a little bread.
● After that, she began to tell them a little about her life in
Scotland, particularly her life with the Rosenblooms.
● We've got a little time on the weekend. Would you like to meet?

Examples with “little”

● There's little point in trying to mend it. You'll never succeed!
● I’m not very happy about it , but I suppose I have little choice.
● Little is known about his upbringing and education.
● He has little education. He can't read or write, and he can hardly
count.

BE CAREFUL!
The difference between the two expressions in each phrase is purely
one of meaning, not of usage.

● Few of my friends were there, so I was disappointed.

● A few of my friends were there, so I was quite happy.
● Hurry up; there's little time left !
● We have a little time to spare, so let's stop and have a cup of
coffee.
PLENTY
You can use “plenty” to refer to the state of having enough or more
than enough, or a large amount of something.

Examples:

● “Would you like some more wine?”. “No, thanks, I've had plenty.”
● Don't grab at the balloons, children - there are plenty for
everyone.
● We've got plenty of time before we need to leave for the airport.
● They've always had plenty of money.
● There's plenty to do here.
● If you have a fever, you should drink plenty of fluids.
● Eat healthily and take plenty of exercise.
● “There's plenty more cake if you'd like another piece”. “I don't
mind if I do.”
● There's plenty of cupboard space in the kitchen for all your pots
and pans.
● What's the hurry? We've got plenty of time.
Real examples:

● “And that we were always adding in a little more flour” - A Sci-fi

Vision of Love From a 318-Year-old Hologram - MOnica Byrne
● “There’s plenty of time.” -Sherry Turkle: Conectado, mas só?

community” Alain de Botton: Ateísmo 2.0

LESSON 04: WIN SOME, LOSE SOME!
CAN YOU GUESS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THESE SENTENCES?

There are a few pillows on the bed.

There are few pillows on the bed

Use “few” to describe consisting of or amounting to only a small

number, And “a few” is used to say “not many, but more than one”.
Both are used in front of nouns, but they don’t have the same
meaning.

A FEW
You use a few simply to show that you are talking about a small
number of people or things.
A small amount, but it's enough.
A few = some.

● I'm having a dinner party for a few close friends.

● Here are a few ideas that might help you.
 STRUCTURE

a few + plural countable nouns

Examples
● There are a few clouds in the sky.
● Let's sing a few songs.
● A few of my school friends live abroad.
● A few farms were dotted about in the valley.
● It's a few inches beyond my reach.
● She went aside for a few moments.
● He hastily stuffed a few pieces of cloth into a bag.
● They prolonged their visit by a few days.

FEW
Few emphasizes that there are only a small number of people or
things of a particular kind.
A small amount, but this time the amount is almost nothing.
“It's good to have nearly no problems.”

● “I have a few friends.” (Here you are

If the noun is something
simply saying that you have some
that we want (like money
or friends) then using 'few' friends).
means that we don't have
● “I have few friends.” (You do not
enough.
have enough friends and are lonely).
 STRUCTURE

few + plural countable nouns

Examples
● Few cities anywhere in Europe can match the cultural richness
of Berlin.
● At that time, few people travelled who didn’t have to.
● Few members of the family leave their hometown each year.
● Few words to the wise suffice.
● I have many friends; I’ve known few of them since high school.
● I'm so pleased that I have few arguments with my family.

Notice that in the 5th example, the use of “few” implies that
although they have a lot of friends, they have not known
them for very long, that is, there’s only a small number of
them they have known since high school.

“FEW” AND “A FEW” USED AS PRONOUNS

● “Doctors work an average of 90 hours a week, while a few work
up to 120 hours.
● Many were invited, but few came.”
 BE CAREFUL!
● Don't use few or a few when you are talking about a small
amount of something.
● Don't say: Would you like a few more milk in your tea?
● Say: Would you like a little more milk in your tea?'

Real examples:

● “taking in tens of thousands of calories while expending very

few.” - Hunting for dinosaurs showed me our place in the
universe | Kenneth Lacovara
● “And then, I set up a few different patches and processes... “ -
