Indefinite pronoun (kata ganti tak tentu) berfungsi mengganti hal-hal yang spesifik menjadi konsep-konsep yang umum dan tidak spesifik. Contoh:
- I want to live abroad in Italy.
- I want to live abroad somewhere.
Some/any
Some dan any bisa dikombinasikan dengan “-thing” untuk menunjukkan objek yang tidak ditentukan. Contoh:
- There’s something outside the door.
- There isn’t anything in the box.
Some dan any bisa dikombinasikan dengan “-body” atau “-one” untuk menunjukkan orang yang tidak ditentukan. Ada sedikit perbedaan makna antara “-body” dan “-one“. Contoh:
- If you have a problem, someone/somebody will help you.
- Do you know anyone/anybody who can help?
Kata benda gabungan ini mengikuti aturan yang sama seperti some dan any, yakni some digunakan pada kalimat afirmatif, dan any digunakan pada kalimat negatif dan pertanyaan. Contoh:
- I need something from the supermarket.
- I don’t need anything from the supermarket.
- Do you need anything from the supermarket?
No bisa dikombinasikan dengan berbagai kata benda yang artinya ketiadaan sesuatu. Contoh:
- “Did you find your wallet? No, there’s nothing here.”
- “Did anything happen?” “No, nothing happened.”
- This job is going nowhere. (maksud: Tidak menjadi lebih baik.)
- Nowhere is as good as here. (maksud: Aku suka disini yang paling baik.)
- Is anybody here? No, there’s nobody here.
- I waited for an hour but nobody came.
- I didn’t tell anyone what happened.
- I told nobody what happened.
Every bisa digunakan untuk menunjukkan sekelompok atau jumlah total sesuatu. Contoh:
- Everything in this house is simple and useful.
- Jane was sick last night, but everything is OK now.
- Everyone was at Michael’s birthday party last night.
- Baseball caps come from America, but people wear them everywhere.
