    Could "mehrere" here be "viele"? thanks

      basically yes. I think that viele tends to be more than mehrere which is more like "quite a lot". My dad used to use the word "umpteen" which is probably a good way to think of mehrere

        is "my woman makes several demands" a wrong translation?

          I answered with "My wife makes more applications", but it was incorrect. Is there a distinction between "mehr" and "mehrer" in this case?
