Hello everyone. I have a question regarding the noun "stuff."
I know that we can count the number of uncountable nouns if we use a countable noun that works as a unit. I mean, we can say something like "a piece of / two pieces of your furniture," right? So, what about the noun "stuff"? Can we say something like "a piece of / two pieces of your stuff"? Or is it totally impossible to count the number regarding the uncountable noun "stuff"?

'Stuff' as you know is the uncountable form of 'thing'. It will need a counter and it is certainly possible if you need one 'Piece' may work if the actual stuff being counted is amenable. I suspect that the counter selected will depend on what kind of 'stuff' it is.
