Little* right? I think?
Little can refer to size of something or someone.
"Aww look at his cute little face." 🐶
Bugs are little, a grain of rice is little.
If you have a little amount of something you have not many - no specific number.
Few is if you have a few of something you have not many. It doesn't have a set number and doesn't relate to size.
It's difficult to explain, in terms of having an amount of something that's few/little there is a slight difference.
"I'll have a little bit (of cake)" people will take extra care to give you a small bit.
If you say "I'll just have a few (of something) people will give you a random amount because it suggests you don't care how many you get as long as it's a small amount.
If that makes sense. 😅
