SOME, ANY + -BODY / -ONE, + -THING, + -WHERE The compounds of some and any behave in the same way as some and any, that is to say, some-, in affirmative sentences and, any-, in negatives and questions, although we use some- in the interrogative to offer something, to ask for something or when we expect a positive response, as we saw in the previous unit. Examples: I saw somebody there. I did not see anybody there. Did you see anybody there? Would you like something better? Instead of I did not see anybody there, we can say I saw nobody there, but we cannot use two negative words: *I did not see nobody there. Anybody, nobody and somebody mean the same as anyone, no-one and nobody respectively. No-one can also be written no one. Any can also mean "every" or "it does not matter which / who": You can take any pencil. Anybody can do it. It's very easy. Let's see the following examples to end with: Somebody told me you were abroad. Nobody came to the meeting. Was there anybody in the house? I want something to eat.

I don't need anything. I need nothing. Would you like something to drink? Is there anything in that drawer? I want to go somewhere else. I didn't go anywhere. I went nowhere. Have you seen my car keys anywhere? SOMETHING, ANYTHING, SOMEONE, ANYONE, SOMEWHERE, ANYWHERE

between is from an Old English word related to the word two. It denotes a position between two things: The guard stood between the door and the street. Just between you and me, Im surprised that a graduate of Yale wouldnt speak better English. The preposition among derives from an Old English word meaning to mix or to mingle. Use among when speaking about more than two things: We wandered among the poppies, looking for the road to Oz. Lets keep this information among ourselves. A common error is to use between where among is more appropriate: I was one of eight brothers. Our parents never made any difference between us. Better: Our parents never made any difference among us. 1. If my black shoes are not among those that are being repaired, I will wear them to the party. 2.
