lots / numerous stores

[MJA]

Hi,

I'd like to know if it's correct to say "with their lots of stores" or should I rather say "with their numerous stores".

Please provide some context, such as the complete sentence.

O.K Let's say "with their lots of stores, you can find everything you need" or "these malls is popular with their lots of stores". I know the context is a bit weird, but what I mean is that there are many stores in this place.

Thanks!

Even without the context, I can see that "numerous" makes up the correct construct. I can see why bibliolept wants to see context - a question of making sure. But what I've offered is a sound bet.

There is the clue
Try writing the examples using many.

"Numerous stores" would be correct. Most AE speakers would go with the obvious "with their many stores."

You wouldn't say "lots of" in this context but rather..
"With their many stores" ..... "these malls ARE popular"
However, as a native English speaker from England, I wouldn't use "stores" but "shops." Nor would I use "malls." In the UK we say "shopping centres."
