Too Much, Too many and A Lot - Basic Grammar

Today, we are going to learn how to use adjective phrases TOO MUCH, TOO MANY and A LOT.  I have seen people use them incorrectly all the time. So let's learn them correctly once and for all.
Let's start with TOO MUCH and TOO MANY.
Note: Too shows excessively bad 

TOO MUCH 

It is used with uncountable nouns like: Water, Beer, Hair, and Love to show nouns that you do not like. 
Example: 
  • I've had too much sugar lately.
  • Adam and Sarah are going to end their 4 years long relationship because they have had too much fight lately.
  • Students don't like too much home work.
  • Indian cities suffer with too much traffic.

Too Many 

It is used with countable nouns like: car, bike, boy, girl etc. to show nouns that you do not like. 
  • There are too many people in India.

  • Too many vehicles on the road caused hour long traffic in China.

Now let's discuss something positive, something we love to do or have 

A lot 

A lot can be used with Countable and Uncountable nouns and shows nouns that we like.
Example:
  • I have a lot of Friends in my life and that makes me super happy. (Countable Noun)
