All right, in this grammar refresh, we're going to talk about a few pronouns and these pronouns are
some.
And any and so some and any now these are words that we use when we want to talk about something in
a non-specific way or we don't want to describe an exact amount.
These are more for general ascription.
Now we can add words to these pronouns, some in any and these are some common words that you should
know, the first group of words are going to be someone or somebody and then anyone or anybody else.
So we're taking some any and then you add it to the word one or body and it becomes a new word of someone,
somebody and somebody.
Anyone, anybody, and so even though the word is itself, his body, when you put it together, it
sounds more like buddy, somebody, anybody.
Now, someone, somebody, anyone, anybody, OK, all very similar, they can be interchanged.
We're going to look at these examples now and then we'll talk about when you should use someone versus
anyone or somebody versus anybody.
But the example says there isn't someone who just gets mad and starts shouting.
So Ella isn't someone who just gets mad and starts shouting, but she's not someone and she's not that
kind of person.
All right.
We're talking about a person that specific.
The next example.
Is there anyone who cares about me?
This is a question, right?
And we're using the word anyone out there?
Is there a person, just any person, anyone?
Now, you'll notice me, someone in the first example and anyone in the second example, a generally.
You're supposed to use someone with these positive sentences or these affirmative sentences.
Abella isn't someone who just gets mad, right?
It's just a positive affirmative sentence.
And when you have questions or negative sentences.
They're going to use any is there anyone who cares about me?
Instead of is there somebody who can now you might hear both, but this is the general rule that you
should try to follow.
Now, the first words we talked about, anyone, someone those are dealing with people, but you can
also add the word thing to some or any, you can have something or anything.
Something, anything, and this is when you're talking about objects right now and people, objects
or even ideas.
But let's look at our example.
So there's something weird about your behavior today.
So you we're talking about some abstract thing, right, some behavior, so there's something weird,
not specific.
We don't know exactly what it is, but it's something.
The next example, anything bothering you, I'm feeling like something is off.
So, again, we had thing to any or some.
And again, remember some we use with these positive sentences, whereas any we use with negative or
question type sentences.
In this grammar refresh, we quickly go over the phrase neither nor either nor or neither nor in pronounce
it both ways.
Neither nor neither nor.
So this phrase we use to connect to negative alternatives in the same sentence, and it's just a quick,
easy way to describe your situation.
So let's look at the examples to make it really clear.
The first example says neither you nor your brother dared to check up on us and neither you nor your
brother.
This is basically just saying not you and not your brother.
You both didn't check up on us.
But to describe that without this phrase, it's kind of difficult.
And you make your sentence really long.
But we can use this phrase to kind of clean things up, make it nice and simple.
Neither you nor your brother or neither you nor your brother.
Quick and simple way to say both of you didn't do this.
Our next sentence says neither Ashley nor Kyle felt happy about moving out of their parents house.
And again, just a quick, easy way to say how Ashley.
Didn't feel happy and didn't feel happy, but they didn't like that very long.
Not very good.
Doesn't sound nice, though.
Just quickly sum it up.
It's neither actually nor Kyle.
Neither nor.
