Fewer = the comparative of "few" = Pocos / Yelled is the past tense of "yell" = gritar - ian-hill, Sep 7, 2011

Fewer (people) yelled = menos (gente) gritó

Fewer = menos

Yelled - that depends. He/she/Ud. yelled = gritó. I yelled = grité

Menos = less / Fewer = más pocos - ian-hill, Sep 7, 2011
"Less" is used for singular things "fewer" is used for plurals. - ian-hill, Sep 7, 2011
Right. But: Few people yelled/shouted. Doesn't that work in this case?? - robertsonj, Sep 7, 2011
