💡 The 'Quantity' Pattern
In this text, we see two ways to talk about how many things there are. This is key for A2 English.
1. Using 'Enough' When you have the right amount, use enough.

- Meaning: They need 10, but they only have 5. (Not enough → ❌)
2. Using 'Many' Use many for things you can count (like jobs or people).
- Example: "many empty jobs"
- Example: "many Indian Institutes"
