When to use "some" or "a few" ? I still have some issues using a few or some... Sometimes people tell me that it is more natural to use a few rather than some. On the other hand, it is the opposite sometimes. For instance, do you say: "some people say that..." or "a few people say that..."? "some of them" or "a few of them"?. If you've got the answer or some examples/explanations, please tell me! Thanks!

Hey y'all! Hello, I've been on Italki for several weeks now. This site is a great opportunity to meet people from all around the globe. I am here to practice my English and my German. I have met interesting people so far and some of them are becoming my friends. I hope that I will one day see them for real, because it is sometimes quite frustating to talk in front of a computer. I would like to spend more time on my foreign languages; however I have so many things to do... and I suppose that I am not the only one in that case!! :) TV is also a good way to improve our listening skills. I like watching American TV shows but not on American channels, because I try to avoid commercial!! Have a great moment on Italki! Nicolas
