Today, we&#8217;re deciphering the codes of quantifiers and intensifiers, those sneaky words that add precision or emphasis to our sentences. Let&#8217;s unravel their mysteries with some examples:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Quantifiers: She has <strong>some<\/strong> books on her shelf.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Intensifiers: He&#8217;s <strong>very<\/strong> excited about the trip.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Quantifiers specify the quantity of nouns, while intensifiers amplify the meaning of adjectives or adverbs. So, next time you&#8217;re quantifying or intensifying, choose your words wisely to add nuance and impact to your language!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","categories":[21],"class_list":["post-12712","fl_news","type-fl_news","status-publish","hentry","category-21"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleyan.ac.jp\/cgu-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/fl_news\/12712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleyan.ac.jp\/cgu-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/fl_news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleyan.ac.jp\/cgu-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/fl_news"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleyan.ac.jp\/cgu-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleyan.ac.jp\/cgu-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
