Hello,

What is the difference between many a time and many times ? which one is correct if I want to say I have lost my wallet many times ?
Thank you in advance.
Have a nice week.

Hello ,

When you use 'many' , you speak of numerous , a great number of words which are countable . .Often : many times . ( plural) It is far from being the first time you lose your wallet / your purse . That is common English .
The expression 'many a time' is not used very often . It insists upon the excessive repetition of something you are tired of .
