Traduzione e definizione
more and more: sempre di più
More and more people are switching from Kalvin Krime to Delavigne perfumes. We think this is due to a gradual decrease in Delavigne's prices. Sempre più persone stanno passando dai profumi Kalvin Krime a quelli Delavigne. Riteniamo che ciò sia dovuto a una graduale diminuzione dei prezzi di Delavigne.
At first it was hard, but I'm getting used to it as more and more time goes by. All'inizio era difficile, ma mi ci sto abituando man mano che il tempo passa.

1 the most: The superlative form of 'successful' is 'the most successful'.
1 most: The word 'most' is the superlative form of the word 'more'. The article 'the' is required in this construction to create the superlative form.
1 many: 'Many' is used to describe an amount or quantities, we would not use it to describe the singular noun 'company'.
2 more: 'More' is the best choice here. 'More and more' is an idiom which expresses progression, or an increase.
2 most: We cannot use 'most' here. 'Most and more' does not make sense. The correct expression is 'more and more'.
3 the most: 'The most respected' is the best choice here because it correctly expresses the superlative form of 'respected'.
3 most: We must precede 'most' with the article 'the' in order to correctly express the superlative form of the adjective 'respected'.
Esercizio 2
In terms of hair, Brian Jones has at the Delavigne Corp. That's just on his head however, as Brian shaves of his body hair every day. As far as body hair is concerned, Willy the security guard is becoming and more of a player each day. His main competition comes from Bob Carter, whose long pony tail and moustache command respect around the office. Of course, in terms of total hair (body, head and tail), Bruno's dog Stink is still hairy employee of the company.

His main competition comes from Bob Carter, whose long pony tail and moustache command much 4 respect around the office. Of course, in terms of total hair (body, head and tail), Bruno's dog Stink is still the most 5 hairy employee of the company.
1 the most: To describe the 'greatest amount of hair' we can use the term 'the most', which refers to 'hair per square inch'.
1 most: 'Most' is the appropriate term here, however the article 'the' is required in this construction to create a grammatically correct sentence. 'Brian Jones has most at the Delavigne Corporation' is grammatically incorrect. 'The most' is often used to replace a noun introduced previously.
1 many: 'Many' is used to describe an amount or quantities. We would not use it to describe 'hair', firstly because 'hair' is considered a singular noun (as opposed to 'hairs', which describes individual hairs), and secondly because using it here would make this sentence grammatically incorrect!
1 much: 'Much' cannot be used in this construction. 'Brian has much at the Delavigne Corp' is grammatically incorrect.
2 much: 'Much' is the best choice here to describe that Brian shaves 'most' or 'a significant amount' of his body hair. Note that 'hair' is considered a singular, uncountable noun (it takes verbs in the singular form), and so 'much' is the best adjective to use here.
2 many: 'Many' is used to describe countable nouns (many photos, many cakes), and cannot be used to describe 'hair', which is considered a singular, uncountable noun (it takes verbs in the singular form). 'Hairs' on the other hand, used to describe individual 'strands' or pieces of hair, takes plural verbs and can be described with 'many'.
2 the most: 'The most' is either used as an adjective, followed directly by a noun (She has the most crazy stories) or as a noun to replace a term introduced previously: (He has a lot of toys, but I have the most). Neither option is appropriate in this construction, as using 'the most' makes this sentence grammatically incorrect.
3 more: 'More' is the best choice here. 'More and more' is an idiom which expresses progression, or an increase. If Willy the security guard is becoming 'more and more of a player', then he is becoming more hairy as time passes!
3 most: We cannot use 'most' in this construction. 'Most and more' does not make sense. The correct expression is 'more and more'.
3 the most: 'The most and more' is grammatically incorrect and doesn't make sense in this construction.
3 many: We cannot use 'many' in this construction. 'Most and more' does not make sense. The correct expression is 'more and more'.
4 much: 'To command (much) respect' is to inspire respect or admiration. Because the term 'respect' is uncountable, we use the term 'much' to describe it.
4 many: 'Many' is only used to describe countable nouns (many birds, many pictures). The term 'respect' cannot be preceded by 'many'.
4 most: 'To command most respect' is grammatically incorrect. To express that Bob commands 'the greatest amount of respect' at the company, we might say that he commands 'the most' respect.
5 the most: 'The most hairy' is one of the superlative forms of the adjective 'hairy' (meaning possessing a lot of hair). 'Hairiest' is the other form. Preceding an adjective or adverb with 'the most' creates the superlative form: the most appetizing, the most inconvenient.
5 most: We must precede 'most' with the article 'the' in order to correctly create the superlative form of the adjective 'hairy'. Using 'most' without the article is grammatically incorrect.
5 the much: The terms 'much' and 'many' are rarely preceded by the definite article 'the', and rarely themselves precede adjectives such as 'hairy'! 'Much' and 'many' generally precede nouns to describe their quantity or amount.
5 the many: The terms 'much' and 'many' are rarely preceded by the definite article 'the', and rarely themselves precede adjectives such as 'hairy'! 'Much' and 'many' generally precede nouns to describe their quantity or amount.
