How it's used
Often used to emphasize diversity or a wide range of items, this term carries a slightly more descriptive or literary feel than simply saying 好多. It frequently appears in formal writing or when someone is listing various experiences or problems. When used in spoken Cantonese, it adds a sense of variety that implies the speaker has observed or encountered a broad spectrum of things.
Examples
There are all sorts of different snacks here.

Common mistake
Avoid using this as a direct quantifier like 幾個 or 好多. It functions more as an adjective describing the nature of a group rather than a specific number of items.
