I couldn't find where JY discusses this topic. Is the negation of "few," none and most? For example,

Statement A: Few dogs are evil

Negation of A: No dogs are evil OR Most dogs are evil

Thanks

    Because few is "Some AND /Most", the negation of few is "none OR most".

    So the negation of "Few dogs are evil" is "either no dogs are evil or most dogs are evil"

    In the video about "few" JY mentions that the LSAT will rarely focus on the "some" component of "few", and more often focus on the "not most" component. Consequently, the negation is more likely to use "most" rather than "none/no", but they would both be technically correct, as they are connected with an "or" operator.

    @guitarnara518 Few =/= Some

    When All is 100

    Few is 1 to 50

    Some is 1 to 100

    Few = Some

    So shouldn't the negation of some be "none"??
