A prepositional phrase containing da, whether following a noun or an adverb, is sometimes called a partitive construction.
103. It is evident from the above examples that an adverb followed by da has a somewhat collective sense, indicating a general sum, mass, or portion of the whole, without distinction of particulars. An adjective of quantitative meaning, on the other hand, usually indicates consideration of the individuals composing the sum or mass named:
En urbo oni havas multe da bruo, in a city one has much noise.
Ni aŭdis multajn bruojn, we heard many (different) noises.
Tie oni havas multe da plezuro, there one has much pleasure.
Oni havas multajn plezurojn tie, people have many (different) pleasures there.
THE DEMONSTRATIVE ADVERB OF QUANTITY.
104. The demonstrative adverb of quantity related to the demonstrative pronoun tiu is tiom, that (this) much, that many, that quantity, so much, etc.:—
Mi donis tiom da mono al vi, I gave that much (that amount of) money to you.
Mi aĉetis tiom da viando, I bought that much meat.
Tiom de la libroj mi legis, that many of the books I read.
RESULT CLAUSES.
105. A clause of result (also called a consecutive clause) expresses an action or condition as due to, or resulting from, something indicated in the main sentence, as "he is so strong that he can do it," "I had so much pleasure that I laughed heartily." In Esperanto a result clause is introduced by ke, preceded (directly or in the main sentence) by an adverb or adjective of manner, degree, or quantity:
Diogeno estis tiel saĝa greka viro ke Aleksandro laŭdis lin, Diogenes was such a wise Greek man that Alexander praised him.
Mi havis tiom da plezuro ke mi tre ridis, I had so much pleasure that I laughed very much.
Ĝi estas tia vilaĝo ke mi ŝatas loĝi tie, it is such (that sort of) a village that I like to live there.
