How do you say loads in french?

There are a few ways to say "loads" in French, depending on the context:

For a large quantity:

* Un tas: This literally means "a pile" and implies a large and somewhat disorganized quantity.

* Une tonne: This literally means "a ton" and emphasizes a very large amount.

For a specific amount:
