what is the difference?
0 Hi, 02 br

00 1. I think all the sentences below have the similar meanings, if not the same meaning. What is the difference then when all are saying it/he has more things than any other place/person? 02 br

00 My guess is that one carries the competitive element and the other doesn't. Is that the only difference? 02 br

00 He has the most money than anyone else. 02 br

00 This store carries the most modern equipment. 02 br

00 2. I think 'a little' or 'little' can be used adjectivally and adverbially (Is this right word??). Then, can it be right this? Which one do you prefer or which one is right if that is the case? I think the negative and positive polarity view points are functional here too. 02 br

00 He speaks English a little. vs. He speaks English little. 02 br
02 br
00 He speaks a little English. vs. He speaks little English. 02 br

00 Sorry if these are two too broad questions. 0-
