Few=nearly no Little=nearly nothing

few说明修饰的是可数名词；little说明修饰的是不可数名词。
但是我不认为Few=nearly no
Little=nearly nothing 的说法科学。
你非要问 nearly no和 nearly nothing 的话，nearly no后面应该再接名词。nearly nothing 则可以独立成句。
比如：He is so poor. There is nearly nothing in his house.
等于He is so poor,nearly no furniture in his house.

no说明修饰的是可数名词；nothing说明修饰的是不可数名词。
