Semana 7 : Indefinitive Pronouns

Indefinite pronouns refer to things or people without mentioning what or who they are. Singular: another, anybody, anyone, anything, each, either, everybody, everyone, everything For example:- •Somebody stole my car. •Does anybody know who she is? •Does anyone have something that could help me with anything? We use indefinite pronouns when you want to refer to people or things without saying exactly who or what they are. The pronouns ending in "-body" and "-one" refer to people, and those ending in "-thing" refer to things. I was there for over an hour before anybody came. It had to be someone with a car. Jane said nothing for a moment. When an indefinite pronoun is the subject, it always takes a singular verb, even when it refers to more than one person or thing. Everyone knows that. Everything was fine. Is anybody there? When we refer back to indefinite pronouns, we use plural pronouns or possessives, and a plural verb. Ask anyone. They 'II tell you. Has everyone eaten as much as they want? You can't tell somebody why they've failed.
