I always consider several to be in the region of about seven due to the first syllable. Few would be in the 3-5 range, several 5-10, many 10-15 and lots being more than that, but it’s also context based too. If there were 7 apples in a bowl I might say several. If there were 7 nuts it would be “a few”.
