Grammar

Do you know when to use the words "some" and "any"? Watch a short explanation and repeat the example sentences after me.

We often use the words “some” and “any” when we want to say "a little of something". In positive sentences, we use "some". For example: "I would like some sugar". When we politely ask for something, we also use "some". For example: "Can I have some sugar, please?" But in other questions, we use "any". For example: "Do you want any sugar?"
