a little salt / little time
A little vs. Little: We use both with uncountable nouns (like salt and time).
- A little means "some" and has a positive meaning (the soup just needed some salt).
- Little means "almost none" and has a negative meaning (he didn't have enough time).
- Few and a few are only used with countable nouns (like apples or minutes).
