What's the difference between 许多 and 很多？
I have learned that 许多 can't be used as predicate yet in this sentence it seems to have a predicative function
他觉得妻子虽然老了许多 但仍很美丽
it's almost the same. both means a lot, very much..
许多 usally in written, and 很多 usually in speech.
老了. – user4072 May 21 '15 at 9:16
