  • few is 3, several is more than 10, many could be the same as several may be alittle less, and couple is 2. like man & women couple.
  • A couple is two. Seems to me that a "few" would be three to six or seven, and several would be six to 11. After that you have a dozen, 13 or more is a lot, and a score is 20. "Many" is probably more than two dozen. These terms are flexible because of the different sizes of objects. A few drinks can mean the same as several drinks, for example, but "a few" is when you're trying to minimize your own and "several" is when you're criticizing someone else's.
