Question

june has less days than july correct sentence

Answer 1

There is mistake of ‘determiner’ in the sentence. ‘Less’ is used with uncountable nouns. However, the word ‘day’ in the sentence is a countable noun. The given sentence should be written correctly as shown below:

June has fewer days than July.

The determiner ‘fewer’ is used with countable nouns. We should be very careful while using determiners as they are confusing. A proper understanding is a must to use them correctly.

Answer 2

Hello friend,

Sentence: June has less days than July

Correct sentence: June has fewer days than July

Explanation: In this sentence, the word days is used which is a countable noun. In the statement, a determinant for uncountable nouns is used, therefore the sentence is incorrect due to it. The correct sentence has proper determinant used with it which is 'fewer'.

This is a very common mistake as proper understanding regarding countable and uncountable nouns is absent in such cases.

I hope the answer is helpful.

Thanks.
