Hello,
When do you use much and many?
Is this sentence correct?
There are too many spelling mistakes in that copy.
Thank you for your help.

Hello,
"Much" is used with a singular noun, "Many" with a plural. It's as simple as that. In your sentence, the noun is "mistakes", so it's "many".
Also think of "How much/many", "too much/many", "so much/many" as they're used very very often!
Hope this helps.

Hello,
Many is used with countable nouns with plural forms, much is used
Eg: I have many problems learning the language. I devoted much time
