## Some - Any

### Some and any

If you want to use the words 'een paar', 'een beetje' or 'wat', you can use the Engelish words 'some' and 'any'.

Some:

'Some' is used in affirmative sentences and in questions to which you expect the answer 'yes'. For example:

- We have some good ideas for the festival.
- I have something to talk to you about.
- Would you like some tea?

Any:

'Any' is used in negatives and all other questions, for example:

- I haven't got anything to wear!
- Do you have any ideas on how to solve this?
- We don't have any plans for the weekend, you?

Some and any are, as you may have seen in the previous examples, easy to combine with these words:

- thing (iets)

- I have something to ask you.
- I don't have anything to wear!

- body (iemand)

- I need somebody to help me here.
- Is there anybody home?

- one (iemand)

- Someone didn't read the memo.
- Ayone who'd like some extra English classes?

- where (ergens)

- I must have it somewhere.
- But now I can't find it anywhere.
