more information or much information

Hi Teachers,

May I know for "information", do we use "more information" or "much information"?

If both are correct, why "more" and "much" are accepted?

So "information" is countable or uncountable noun?

Please advise.

Thank you.

Yes, we do.

I don't have much information on that subject.
I'd like to get more information.
I do have a lot of information on that.

What we do NOT say is "many information."

Hi Teachers,

Since both "more information" or "much information" are correct, so "information" is countable or uncountable noun?

Please advise.

Thank you.

Uncountable.
Much more information about the usage of 'information' is available in online dictionaries.

It seems like you're completely confused.
You can use "much" only with uncountable nouns and "many" only with countable nouns. The word "more" you can use with both.

We don't have much information about the accident.
Can you give a little bit more information?
We don't have many pancakes.
I have more pancakes than you.

'Many pieces of information' should be grammatical, though.

It is.
