On the square where the girl is laying on the bed, i didn’t get the meaning of 何ヶ月も. While 何も, どこにも and 誰も have the idea of the ausence of something, 何ヶ月も have the idea many months?
Yes, 何ヶ月も means “many months.”
The word “何ヶ月” by itself means “how many months.” It is the question word for a quantity. (The answer word, for example “two months” is 二ヶ月.)
The phrase “何ヶ月も” with the verb “続く” (= continue) means “(Something) continues for so many months!” It implies a large number of months, so many that you aren’t even sure how many months.
• The pattern works like this: question word for a quantity + も + verb.
• Other examples: I ate so many chocolates! (チョコレートを) いくつも食べた！
So many people (came to my party) = 何人も (来た)
So many pencils (are in this desk) = 何本も (ある)
Yes, previous description with 何も, どこにも and 誰も was not an explanation of usage of も in this context. Right now I just changed the explanation into “Particle も emphasizes the word which comes before it.” but I will create more detailed description with Roberta’s explanation later. Thank you for posting!
