How do they work?

What is a quantifier?

A quantifier is a word or phrase which is used before a noun to indicate the amount or quantity:

'Some', 'much', 'many', ' a few', 'a lot of' and 'any' are examples of quantifiers.

Some vs Any

• When we want to refer to a plural noun or an uncountable noun, without giving a specific quantity,
  we use ‘some’ and ‘any’. 
  
  

• We use ‘some’ in affirmatives (sentences not containing 'not') and ‘any’ in questions and negative sentences.

Recap:

Some/Any + noun: when we don't know the exact number/amount, or it's not important:

We usually use some in positive and any in questions and negative sentences.

She has some flowers. Have we got any milk? 

Some

We can use some in questions if they are requests: 

offers: 

or suggestions:

'Can I have some information?'

'Would you like some tea?'

'Shall we do some work now?'

Quantifier

Noun

Any

We can use any in questions to mean 'it doesn't matter which': 

'Which flavour ice cream do you want?'

'Oh get me any flavour - I don't mind which.'

Some & Any

We can use some and any without a noun,
when it's clear what we're talking about:

'We haven't got any milk.'

'I'll go and get some.'

'We need some coins for the ticket machine.'

'Oh dear, I haven't got any.'

Some what?

Any what?
