i thinw would mean less in number,maybe upto 10 and a lot would mean there are quite a number of the said article(hope i make sense) but english language can be quite meaningless attimes.

If a few means 3 or more then when does a few become a lot? It makes me confused and think deeper lolz. It's little bit difficult but for me you can say it's a lot if it's more than what you want.Just like the glass of water, when the water overflow on the glass then that's a lot for me.

I would imagine a few becomes a lot when you have more than a few. I think there are many people who have wondered that. You are clearly not the only one who has been wondering that. I guess that there are people who want to have that idea and that dont ask it for whatever reason.

Hi! Tricky question you got there. But it got me wondering too :P I guess it's really relative. Say for example, If you're having a party with 100 on the guest list and you are expecting everyone to come, 30 might still be few and 84 is already many. However if there is a boring lecture with 100 seats and not much is expected, 30 might already be a lot. For benchmark purpose, I suggest 50% be used :). If the number falls below 50% lets consider it few...lol.
