What does Many really mean?

Sure thing! So, "many" is a word that we use to talk about a large number of something. When we say "many," we're talking about a lot of things. For example, if I were to ask you how many apples are in the bowl, and you see that there are a lot of apples, you could say "There are many apples in the bowl."

Another way to think about "many" is to think about it as the opposite of "few" or "a few." If "few" means not a lot, then "many" means a lot. It's like when you have a lot of toys to play with - you have many toys. You could also say "A lot" instead of "many," and it would mean the same thing.

We can also use "many" when we want to show that something happens a lot of times. For example, if I say "I have read many books," it means that I have read a lot of books, not just a few.

So, "many" is a word we use to talk about a large number of something or when something happens a lot of times. It helps us describe and understand that there's a lot of something, whether it's objects or occurrences. I hope that helps you understand what "many" means!
