Somebody, Anything, Nowhere ...

Kombiniere some-, any-, no- und every- mit -body/-one (Personen), -thing (Dinge) und -where (Orte). Die Endungen -body und -one bedeuten dasselbe: somebody = someone.

  • some- in positiven Sätzen: There's somebody at the door.
  • any- nach not und in Fragen: I didn't see anything. Bedeutet auch "egal welche(r/s)": Sit anywhere.
  • no- enthält bereits die Verneinung, daher bleibt das Verb positiv: There's nothing to eat = There isn't anything to eat. Verwende no- niemals zusammen mit not.
  • every- bedeutet alle: Everybody passed. I looked everywhere.

Diese Wörter stehen mit einem Verb im Singular: Everyone is here. No one wird als zwei Wörter geschrieben (im britischen Englisch auch no-one).

Beispiele

  • Somebody is knocking at the door.
  • I didn't buy anything at the market.
  • There's nothing in the fridge.
  • Everyone likes ice cream.
  • I can't find my glasses anywhere.
