| Dec 5, 2019 at 17:28 | comment | added | Henning Kockerbeck | @juancarlosvegaoliver According to the Duden, there's an adverb "viel" and a pronoun or numeral "viel". I'd guess that maybe with not countable things you use the adverb and with countable things the numeral? But that's beyond my knowledge of the technicalities of the German language. | |
| Dec 5, 2019 at 14:08 | comment | added | some_math_guy | @Henning Kockerbeck, then is my book wrong when saying wie viel is not declined or is it that perhaps plural is not considered a declension?. viel is an adverd there ,right? Could you add more examples of "wie viel" declined other than wie viel and wie viele? | |
