How do know when to use "muy" and when to use "mucho"?
Is"muy" feminine and "mucho" masculine?

You would know by the meaning of the words:
muy = very (adverb) and mucho/a (adjective) = much
and above all, the context will determine when to use the words and when it would not be appropriate to do so
Por ejemplo: ¿Cómo está Ud? =How are You?
Estoy muy bien, gracias = I am very well, thank you
You would not use mucho here as it would not make (as much) sense in this context
Tengo mucho dinero = I have a lot of money (literally: much)
Dinero is masc so mucho must match it and be masculine!
You would not use muy =very as it would not make any sense here either
I hope that helps ![]()
