a few extra oxygen tanks / few crew members
A few vs. Few: We use both with plural countable nouns (like tanks and members).
- A few means "some" or "a small number" (she packed some extra tanks).
- Few means "almost none" or "not many" and has a negative feeling (sadly, almost nobody wanted to go).
- Little and a little are only used with uncountable nouns.
