1.a bit/ a little
这两个词都意为“一点儿”有时可以互换,但有时不能。
Ⅰ.二者作程度副词修饰形容词、副词、动词或比较级时,意义相同,为“一点儿” “有些”。如:
① I am a bit / a little hungry. 我有点饿。

Ⅱ.二者都可以作名词词组,充当主语或宾语。如:

Ⅲ。a little可直接修饰名词;a bit后须加of才可以。如:

[注意] a little of 后的名词通常特指,表“……中的一些”,如:
①May I have a little of your tea?
Ⅳ. 否定形式 not a little 作状语,相当于very/ quite, “很”, “非常”;作定语和宾语时,相当于much, 意为 “许多”。而not a bit 作状语时,相当于not at all, 意为“一点也不”,作宾语时则相当于not much. Eg:
① He is not a little (=very) hungry. 他饿极了。
② He is not a bit (=not at all) hungry.他一点也不饿。
③ She ate not a little (=much). 她吃得很多。
Ⅴ. Not a bit 中的not 可以分开使用;not a little中的not 则不能分开。Eg:
① He felt not a bit tired. = He didn’t feel a bit tired. 他觉得一点也不累。
② He felt not a little tired. 他觉得非常累。但不能说:He didn’t fell a little tired.
2.a few/ few/ a little/ little
Ⅰ. a few和few修饰可数名词,a little和little修饰不可数名词;a few和a little表示肯定意义,few和little表示否定意义,可受only修饰。如:
