[Pages:4]Quantifiers and Intensifiers
I. Introduction
In
Spanish,
there
are
several
words
that
can
be
used
to
intensify
(boost
the
meaning)
or
quantify
(referring
to
the
number
or
amount)
the
meaning
of
other
words.
Intensifiers
are
not
the
same
as
comparatives

superlatives.

person

thing
to
another.

have

different
