Q

Some
Any
No

A

➡️ Pour les phrases affirmatives on emploie SOME.

  • Pour les phrases interrogatives on emploie :
    ➡️ SOME quand on attend une réponse affirmative
    ➡️ ANY lorsqu’on n’a aucune idée de la réponse
  • Dans les phrases négatives on emploie :
    ➡️ ANY si la phrase contient une négation
    ➡️ NO si la phrase ne contient pas de négation.
    Les 2 formes ont la même traduction en français.

Pour distinguer une vraie question d’une fausse question (chez un ami qui nous a invités)
✅️ « Can I have some water, please?»
Ici, il s’agit d’une question polie. La personne qui la pose est sûre que l’autre personne va répondre positivement. Il emploie SOME.

✅️ « Is there ANY coffee left » ?
Ici le locuteur ne connaît pas la réponse, il s’agit d’une vraie demande d’information. Il faut donc employer ANY.

  • anybody, anyone => n’importe qui
  • nobody, no one => personne
