Less amount

[tufguy]

Hi guys,

Please check. "Why have you paid this less amount".

 

[SoothingDave]

"Lower amount" or "lesser amount."

It needs a question mark.

 

[tufguy]

Is this less amount fine?

 

[Rover_KE]

No. See SoothingDave's correction.

 

[tufguy]

But it sounds odd. "You paid this lesser amount". I think you are saying, we should say "Why have you paid less anount or kesser amount". I can't work with this or that.

He is not saying that. He has very clearly said that either "lower" or "lesser" should be substituted for "less."
