    Even though less has been used before plural nouns (less words; less men) since the time of King Alfred, many modern usage guides say that only fewer can be used in such contexts. Less, they say, should modify singular mass nouns (less sugar; less money) and singular abstract nouns (less honesty; less love). It should modify plural nouns only when they suggest combination into a unit, group, or aggregation:less than $50(a sum of money); less than three miles (a unit of distance). With plural nouns specifying individuals or readily distinguishable units, the guides say that fewer is the only proper choice:fewer words; fewer men; no fewer than 31 of the 50 states.Modern standard English practice does not reflect this distinction. When followed by than, less occurs at least as often as fewer in modifying plural nouns that are not units or groups, and the use of less in this construction is increasing in all varieties of English:less than eight million people; no less than 31 of the 50 states.When not followed by than, fewer is more frequent only in formal written English, and in this construction also the use of less is increasing:This year we have had less crimes, less accidents, and less fires than in any of the last five years.



-less,

  1. an adjective suffix meaning «without» (childless;
    peerless    ), and in adjectives derived from verbs, indicating failure or inability to perform or be performed (resistless;
    tireless    ).

    • 2020 March 1, Frank Bruni, “Mayor Pete Flew Sky High”, in The New York Times‎[1]:

      On Sunday night in South Bend, where he delivered a poignant valediction to his campaign before hundreds of cheering supporters, he noted that it had “sent a message to every kid out there wondering if whatever marks them out as different means they are somehow destined to be less than.”

    • 2022 May 5, Eleanor Gordon-Smith, “I’ve got a seven-month-old baby. How do I make sure she doesn’t feel the same body shame I did?”, in The Guardian‎[2]:

      I worry for her. I know it sounds silly but the world is judged on looks and I don’t want her to feel the same, less-than, body-shamed feelings that I did. How do I go about making sure she doesn’t feel less-than or not-as-good-as based on her looks?

    • 2022 December 4, “SNL’s Chloe Fineman Gets Pete Davidson Appeal, Calls Him ‘Deeply Charming’”, in TooFab‎[3]:

      Perhaps too much continues to be made about Davidson’s romantic life, with even him cracking jokes about it back when he was engaged to Ariana Grande. He joked that he was clearly dating up, referring to his apparently less than looks compared to Grande.

Usage notes[edit]

When used as an adjective, less than can never be used attributively, but it is also ungrammatical to use it as a postpositive immediately after the word modified. Rather, it must be used postpositively as part of a complement.
