Few/Little/Less

Few is used with objects that can be counted one by one
Few means not many
few people, few books, few flowers
We use 'few' before plural countable nouns

Little is used before uncountable nouns with the singular forms
which means not much
It emphasizes how small the amount is

I speak very little French

There is little milk in the bottle

Less is used with qualities or quantities that cannot be individually counted
It is used with uncountable nouns
money, work, travel
'Less' is the comparative form of little

She earns less money than her husband

Forming the possessive

The possessive form is used with nouns referring to people, groups of people, countries, and animals. 'Belonging to' or 'ownership' is one of the relationships it expresses :

John owns a car. ('John' is the possessor or owner)
It is John'scar.

America has some gold reserves. ('America' is the owner)
They are America's gold reserves.

John's mother
The Queen's daughter

The car of John = John's car.
The room of the girls = The girls' room.
Clothes for men = Men's clothes.
The sister of Charles = Charles' sister.
The boat of the sailors = The sailors' boat.

It can also express other relationships, for example:

where someone works or studies or spends time:

John goes to this school. This is John'sschool.

To form the possessive, add 's('apostrophe -s') to the noun.
If the noun is plural, or already ends in -s, just add:'(an apostrophe). For names ending in -s:

In speaking we add the sound /z/ to the name, but in writing it is possible to use either 'sor just '. The 's form is more common. e.g. Thomas's book, James's shop.

Pronouns

A pronoun takes the place of a noun

Personal pronouns refer to a person

I go to school
You are a student
They are Koreans
He works here
We gave her food

The word ‘it' refers to an object

I drank it
It is big
They cut it into halves

Present Perfect progressive
&
Present Perfect Simple

Both tenses are used to express that an action began in the past and is still going on or has just finished.

In many cases, both forms are correct, but there is often a difference in meaning:

We use the Present Perfect Simple mainly to express that an action is completed or to emphasize the result.

Result ) what / how much / how often)
I have written 5 letters. / I have been to London twice.

We use the Present Perfect Progressive to emphasize the duration or continuous course of an action.

Duration ) how long)
I have been writing for an hour.
