📦 Counting Stuff (Quantifiers)

Look at how the story describes amounts. In A2 English, we use different words depending on if we can count the item.

1. Things we count (Countable) These use numbers + the word:

  • 4 guns
  • 12 people
  • 2 people
  • 5 packets
  • 1 man

2. Things we don't count (Uncountable) We use words like some or kilograms for these:

  • some heroin
  • 15 kilograms of marijuana
  • 2 kilograms of heroin

Quick Rule: If it is a powder or a liquid → use kilograms or some. If it is an object (like a gun) → use a number.

Pattern: [Number] + [Object] \rightarrow 12 people [Amount] + of + [Substance] \rightarrow 15 kilograms of marijuana
