<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ErolGarip, post: 2830311, member: 88736&quot;]Just proved now &quot;money is countable&quot; and &quot;much money&quot; is wrong, &quot;many money&quot; is correct, here again, last post by &quot;Garipx&quot;, <a href="https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/how-much-or-how-many-for-money.3356019/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/how-much-or-how-many-for-money.3356019/" rel="nofollow">https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/how-much-or-how-many-for-money.3356019/</a> (heart of proof is in last paragraph there) </p><p><br /></p><p>If the Mod there deletes it also, let me repeat the proof here. </p><p><br /></p><p>If we show a set by &quot;{ }&quot;, money={dollar, cent} as they put &quot;dollar&quot; too in money set.</p><p>But, we know that &quot;1dollar=100cents&quot;, therefore, there is &quot;countability relation&quot; between &quot;dollar&quot; and &quot;cent&quot;. </p><p>So, if we write it in this form, money={100cent, cent}, you can see there is only one element in this set, and it is &quot;cent&quot;. Also, with &quot;100&quot; in this set, you can see the countability of this set, which is about money. It is not necessary to write &quot;100&quot; in the set as this set is about &quot;countability&quot;. </p><p><br /></p><p>So, this set can be written as .... money={cent}... See this set &quot;money&quot; has only one element and it is &quot;cent&quot;. </p><p>So, we can also write it, without { }, as ... money=cent (which is countable)... In words, it is &quot;money is cent&quot;... </p><p><br /></p><p>Conclusion: &quot;much money&quot; is WRONG... should (have) be(en) &quot;many money&quot;...&nbsp; </p><p>(&quot;moneys&quot; or &quot;monies&quot; is another story, their jobs of linguists.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
