Hope this helps.

A:

They really mean exactly the same thing – not much. A very small amount. They are general phrases, not meant to be precise.

However, if you want to be absolutely sure that someone understands that you want a very very small amount, then you can say a little bit, rather than a bit; or you could even say

I only want a very tiny, teeny-weeny, little bit. Just a speck. A smudge. Almost nothing.

You can continue intensifying the smallness of it until the person understands how small you want it

A: There is no difference. A little and a little bit both mean a small amount.

Oh! If they meant to say It's a bit of a sticky one still, I think I understand.

People sometimes call a tough or sensitive situation "sticky".

examples:
▪︎My friend is very sensitive about her weight, so discussing food or fashion can be a bit sticky.

▪︎He borrowed money from a lender, but now he can't pay it back. The situation is becoming very sticky.

A: The best I can think of is "far fetched".

A: Your sentence is correct. Punctuation is very important in English language. Here is the correct written sentence:

“I might bend a little bit, but I don’t fold.”

Great job on your sentence!!! :)

A: They all mean the same thing - most of the time.

Could I have some more french fries?
Could I have a few more french fries?
Could I have a little bit more french fries?

These all are the same.

A few more - this has to be items you can count. Like pieces.

You can say
Could I have some more coffee?
Could I have a little bit more coffee?
These mean you want more coffee poured in your cup.

But if you say - can I have a few more coffees? - they will give you more cups of coffee instead of pouring more coffee in the cup you already have.

Does this help?
