Video shows Amazon man living with no human contact | How to use ‘much less’ in English

The government of Brazil released a video of a lone indigenous man surviving in the Brazilian state of Rondônia. He was part of an “uncontacted tribe,” which had no contact with civilization, when the other members of his tribe were killed in an attack by farmers in 1995. He has been living alone in the forest ever since, refusing contact with any other humans. In this episode, you’ll learn how to use the English phrase “much less.”
