Less indicates a smaller amount, a lower degree, or reduced frequency. It modifies uncountable nouns, adjectives, and adverbs, or it directly follows verbs. Lesser functions as an adjective meaning lower in importance, rank, quality, or extent. It primarily sits before a noun. While meaning guides the decision, the surrounding grammatical pattern confirms which word fits standard English.
