Hello Kai,
Thank you for your comment. The word cloud (noun) can countable or uncountable depending on how it is used. In this context, it is a plural countable noun. We can use a few with plural nouns that can be counted.
ex) one cloud, two clouds, three clouds...
There are a few clouds.
ex) one mountain, two mountains, three mountains...
There are a few mountains.
I hope this helps. If you would like to book some lessons with me, I would be happy to help you practise a few / a little. We could also look at when to use few / little without a.
Matthew
Thank you! An excellent material. But what about a few with a plural noun.
Why a few cloudS?
