    Re: Difference between ad and add
    LESS vs FEWER.

    If a quantity can be counted, it is FEWER.

    If a quantity is an abstract amount, it is LESS.

    example:

    Three people left the crowd. Now there are three fewer people. It is NOT "three less people"

    I drank some of my water and now there is less water in my glass. the preceding sentance correctly uses "less"
