Little and few (without a) are negative ideas.
example :
- Hurry up!We've got little time.
- he is not popular. He has few friends.
we also use very little and very few.
- we have got very little time.
- He has very few friends.
A little and a few are more positive ideas.
- Let's go and have a drink. We have got a little time before the train leaves.
(some time, enough time tp have a drink)
- I enjoy my life here. I have a few friends and we meet quite often.
( a few friends = not many but enough to have friends )
