Hello everyone, and welcome to On Your Mark’s English! 👋

Today is Grammar Made Easy Tuesday, and we’re learning the difference between two very important words: some and any.

These two words are used in different types of sentences. Let’s break it down:

We use some in positive sentences.

Examples:

✅I have some friends in London. 🇬🇧

✅I would like some water, please. 💧

We use some when we’re giving information or making a polite request.

We use any in negative sentences and in questions.

Examples:

🔸 Negative: I don’t have any money.

🔸 Question: Do you have any questions?

Any is perfect when we’re asking or saying “zero”.

Word	Used In	Example
some	Positive sentences (+)	I have some time.
any	Negative sentences (-) and questions (?)	I don’t have any time. / Do you have any time?

Complete this sentence:👉 “She doesn’t have ____ pets.”

Is it some or any? Write your answer in the comments down below!
