Hi, can anyone explain why I use "much" for countable and uncountable nouns in sentence 1 & 2, but I need "many" for the countable nouns in 3, and "much" for the uncountable nouns in 4? The only thing I can think of is in 1 and 2 we're talking about degree and in 3 and 4 the nouns. I'm lost!
1. I consider James a friend as much as a colleague.
2. They like rice as much as pasta.
3. I have as many friends as you.
4. I have as much rice as you.
Help! :-?
