In le dictionario trovate in tu libro "Interlingua Grammar and Method", io trova:

little (adj): pauc, poc
little (adv) (somewhat): un poco
little (n): poco, pauco
little by little: poco a poco
little, not very: poco

E in le lista de particulas:

pauc, poc adj/adv/pn

Mais necun mention de "poco".

(Nota que in anglese, on dicerea "so far", e non "yet" aqui.)

Mais tu proprie dictionario dice que "poco, pauco" es un substantivo, no?

Iste question es difficile: es "little" un substantivo o un adjectivo in anglese, aqui? Io
suppone que un poterea reordinar le phrase de iste maniera:

"I have contributed very little." (substantivo)
"I have contributed much / a lot." (substantivo)

In iste caso, io dicerea:

"Io ha contribuite multo pauco." (substantivo)
"Io ha contribuite multo." (substantivo)

Io ha contribuite multo pauc [articulos]. (adjectivo)
Io ha contribuite multe [articulos]. (adjectivo)
