Notas de uso
- Use 'poco' for uncountable quantities (e.g., 'poco zucchero'). For countable, use 'pochi/e' (e.g., 'pochi libri').
- 'Poco' often follows the verb (e.g., 'mangio poco'). Before nouns, it means 'little' (e.g., 'poco tempo').
- Avoid 'un poco' in formal writing; 'un po'' (with apostrophe) is informal but common in speech.

Notas de uso
- As a noun, poco is uncommon alone; you'll more often see un poco or a little in fixed expressions.
- Don't confuse noun poco with the adjective/adverb poco, which changes meaning by position and context.
- With nouns, use poco/poca/pochi/poche as an adjective; the standalone noun use is much more limited.
