It means you can count it.
If you wanted to count all the sweets in the world, do you think we could do it?
No, it'd be difficult because people are eating them all the time, so the number changes, and factories are making them all the time.
So sometimes there's more, sometimes there's less.
But if you stopped everybody and said, stop, don't make any more and don't eat any more, it would be possible if everybody in the world agreed to help, it would be possible for us to count all the sweets in the world.
Because there's a certain number.
We don't know what the number is, but it's possible to count.
Are big numbers, but they're nowhere near infinity.
In fact, I'm going to give you some sweets.
You've got some sweets and I've got more sweets because they're my sweets.
But you've got some more now.
No, not that many.
All right.
You start counting yours.
Have you got any more?
No.
But if I gave you another one, that would be, how many is that?
Nine.
You'd have nine sweets.
Right.
