1. She worked hard for many years. 2. They were one of the many, many families that came to watch the parade._
B) Many is also commonly used as a pronoun, to mean “many people or things,” as in these examples:
1. Some people will come to the meeting, but many [=many people] will not.
2. We were hoping to sell our old books, but many [=many books] were not in good condition._
3. I know some of the people here, but not very many.
🔘Many a/an...
The fixed expression many a/an... is more formal than the single word many, and it is much less common. Many a/an... is used mainly in literary writing and newspapers. Like the adjective and pronoun many discussed above, many a/an... is used to indicate a large number of something. However, it takes a singular noun, which can be followed by a singular verb. Here are some examples:
1. It remained a mystery for many a year. [=for many years]
2. I've been there many a time. [=many times]
3. Many a politician has promised to make changes. [Politician and has are singular.]

Q:
What is the difference between However, the man had strong a personality. and However, the man had a strong personality. ?
A:
I think it’s very important to teach English in a more modern/contemporary fashion because that would show the way English is spoken currently. A lot of English classes have students reading stories from the 1900s when a lot of those stories don’t fit the way we communicate today. While sentence structure and punctuations haven’t changed since then, the style/fashion has. But the cool thing is, even if you approach one of us speaking like you’re from the 1900s, we will still understand what you are trying to say. ☺️😁

Which do you think is correct, “this” or “his”?
By the way, I’ll delete the file later due to copy right.
A:
I'm pretty sure he is saying "this". I can understand how someone would be unsure, because the previous word also ends with "th", so it is a question of whether he is saying "th + h" or "th + th". However, if it was "his", then the "th" sound would not be so pronounced, and would transition more smoothly from one word to the next. The fact that the "th" is fairly sharp and noticeable means that it is at the beginning of a word, and thus comes from saying "this".
I've attached an audio clip of the difference when I say "with his" vs "with this", for reference.
