Answer

I'm not sure if I got the jist of the question right, but...
- To describe the amount of people, C may say something like "there's a handful of people", "there's lots of people", "there's only about N people there", "there are more than/less than N people there" or "there are only a few people there".
- To emphasize the amount of people without being specific, one can say "the place is packed full", "the place is practically deserted" or "there's plenty of room still" to name a few examples.

Answer

I'm Korean and I can clearly tell you what I want to say in Kor but I can't in Eng.. Maybe i should have written what i wanted to say in Korean );

Answer

That's a rather strange question! I take it you meant 'C does'? I don't understand why you added the last sentence. Those phrases are nothing to do with emphasis of numbers.
