    In terms of your first two examples, which are really related to this concept of how you should use ‘a few’ or simply ‘few’: –

    If you say

    “I have a few problems”

    it is different in meaning to saying

    “I have few problems”

    in the first you could read it as “I have some problems”

    in the second emphasis is on the ‘few’ so you could read it as “I only have a few problems”. Which is a feature worth feeling good about, or simply having “a few problems” which is really not such an esteemed position to be in.

    When you ignore the ‘a’ you are accentaging the ‘few’ in the sentence.

    What is the right way to use ‘the’ few in your question? In English, grammar. What is to be said here when your question, especially the point of reference, is incomplete? Is there anywhere for definite articles in blogs? Or start by looking at this related question:

    definite or indefinite article.

    Can I be a Leader, not a

    Follower? Hell, I’m not even that good of a follower either, just someone who will do your bidding for the right price. Even then, if it doesn’t benefit me, or put you in debt to me, I won’t do it.

    Moneygrabber

    Fits well and is a countable noun derived from:

    Moneygrabber

    Very interested in money and trying to get as much money as possible. – Macmillan.

    What is the correct pronunciation? What is in the case of the other editors?

    Popularity (Oxford) The state or condition of being liked,

    admired, or

    supported by many people, or any type. It might be a definite or incomplete term. What is important about popularity?

    When asking your question on Quora, you are not generally popular but it is possible in the most general sense to be popular as well,

    for example mapping onto the

    term of your question,

    – Common – not

    particularly popular Notable – somewhat popular Well

    known – popular Famous – in the height of popularity, in formally not like from the first word or the last word or the longer term, for example mapping onto the term in your question.
