Indefinite pronouns • We use indefinite pronouns to refer to people or things without saying exactly who,what or where they are. • We use pronouns ending in -body or -one for people, and pronouns ending in -thing for things: • -where PLACES • -one PEOPLE • - thing OBJETCS We use SOME or ANY in affirmative and interrogative and negative sentences •SOME AFFIRMATIVE •ANY NEGATIVE AND INTERROGATIVE
