There is only _____ water left in the jug.
Will the answer be some or little? I know that the determiner little is used for uncountable nouns & some is used for both countable & uncountable nouns. So which is the correct answer - some or little? Please let me know the reason.
My brother got the following question in his English exam where in the words of a sentence are scrambled & a proper sentence has to be framed using those words:
success/depends/a man's/chiefly/on himself
The options given were
1. A man's success chiefly depends on himself.
2. A man's success depends chiefly on himself.
Which is the correct answer & why? I find both of them technically correct.
Thanks,
Ron
