1
00:00:02,540 --> 00:00:07,839
Some and any. When do we use some and when do we use any?

2
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:13,919
This has to do also with the previous video about countable and uncountable nouns.

3
00:00:14,599 --> 00:00:20,760
Okay? So, some and any are used to state the quantity amount of something.

4
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:26,320
When we use some or any, the exact number is not stated.

5
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:35,299
Okay, it's not stated because it's not known, the exact number, or because it's not important or relevant for what we are saying.

6
00:00:36,719 --> 00:00:38,679
Let's see interrogative sentences.

7
00:00:39,100 --> 00:00:46,859
In interrogative sentences, we always use any, okay, except two special cases that we will see after.

8
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:53,859
Any, for countables and for uncountable nouns, for both, okay?

9
00:00:53,859 --> 00:00:56,679
So, are there any tomatoes in the fridge?

10
00:00:57,020 --> 00:00:58,600
Tomatoes are countable.

11
00:00:59,159 --> 00:01:01,219
Is there any orange juice?

12
00:01:01,979 --> 00:01:04,019
Orange juice is uncountable.

13
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:13,760
Notice that the verb when we are using any with accountable nouns is in the plural form, are.

14
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:14,819
Okay?

15
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:20,079
And when we use it with uncountable, is in the singular, is.

16
00:01:21,340 --> 00:01:23,079
Let's go to the affirmative ones.

17
00:01:23,859 --> 00:01:27,579
we use some always

18
00:01:27,579 --> 00:01:31,060
there are some tomatoes in the fridge, countable

19
00:01:31,060 --> 00:01:35,500
there is some orange juice, uncountable

20
00:01:35,500 --> 00:01:39,760
and again the verb depending on

21
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,060
if we are using it in countable or uncountable nouns

22
00:01:43,060 --> 00:01:46,980
is different because we can use the plural form

23
00:01:46,980 --> 00:01:50,359
are for countable and the singular form

24
00:01:50,359 --> 00:01:56,359
is for uncountable and finally we have the negatives

25
00:01:56,359 --> 00:02:01,879
negatives use any for both again countables and uncountables and again

26
00:02:01,879 --> 00:02:06,519
the verb will be a plural or singular depending

27
00:02:06,519 --> 00:02:09,080
on if you are using it with a countable

28
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:14,840
noun or an uncountable noun there aren't any tomatoes in the fridge

29
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:20,280
there isn't any orange use and then we have two special kinds of

30
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:28,759
questions that are offers and requests and in this case we don't use a any we use some

31
00:02:30,199 --> 00:02:38,759
would you like some coffee you are offering somebody coffee okay and a request will you

32
00:02:38,759 --> 00:02:49,159
mind lending me some money and well a that is all for a some for the users of some and any
