How to Use ‘Almost’ and ‘Most’
I’m sometimes confused by how to use ’almost’ and most. So today, I’d like to make a note about correct examples and wrong examples.
Correct examples:
・almost all scientists…
・almost all of the scientists…
・most scientists…
・most of the scientist…
・(the) scientists mostly…
Wrong examples:
・almost all of scientists…
・almost scientists…
・most of scientists…
・most the scientist…
I really often make a such mistake. If I say “Almost people are…,” this might imply an alien which is becoming a human. I’d like to be careful.
・almost all scientists…
・almost all of the scientists…
・most scientists…
・most of the scientist…
・(the) scientists mostly…
・almost all of scientists…
・almost scientists…
・most of scientists…
・most the scientist…
