Pronombres indefinidos

Indefinite pronouns
(indefinit pronouns)

Los pronombres indefinidos son palabras que nos ayudan a
nombrar personas, animales, cosas o
lugares, sin especificar sexo o
dirección; y se consideran siempre
singulares.

Los que empiezan con "every" se usa en oraciones (+), (-) y
(?), Y son los siguientes:

Everyone (evriwuan) (cada uno, todos).
Everybody (evribodi) (cada uno, todos, cada quien).
Everything (evriding) (cada cosa, todas las cosas).
Everywhere (evrijwer) (cada lugar, todas partes, todos los
lugares).

Ex:
Everyone is here today (evriwuan is ji..r tudei) (todos
están aquí hoy).

They sent everybody an invitation.
(dei sent evribodi an inviteishion)
(ellos enviaron a cada quien una invitación)

Did we like everything about it?.
(did ui laik evriding abaut it?)
(nos gusta todo acerca de eso?)

God is everywhere, that is, inside and outside of everyone of
us.
(god is evrijwer, dat is, insaid and autsaid ov evriwuan ov
os)
(dios esta por/en todas partes, es decir, dentro y fuera de cada
uno de nosotros)

Los que empiezan con "no", son opuestos en significado a los
que empiezan con "every", y solo se usan en frases (+) y (?), No
se usan en frases negativas, porque por si mismos, ya expresan
negación:

Noone (nowuan) (no uno, ninguno, nadie).
Nobody (nobodi) (no cuerpo, ninguno, nadie).

Nowhere (no lugar, ningún lugar).

oraciones  (+)  y (?),
Y son los siguientes:

Someone (somwuan) (alguno/a, alguien).
Somebody (sombodi) (algún cuerpo, alguien).

(hay alguien alla)

There is something I can´t remember.
(der is somding ai cant wrimember)
(hay algo que yo no recuerdo)

Los que empiezan con "any" tienen el mismo significado que las
que empiezan con "some", pero se usan en oraciones (-) y (?).

Anyone (eniwuan) (alguien).
Anybody (enibodi) (alguien).
Anything (eniding) (alguna cosa, algo).
Anywhere (enijwer) (algún lugar).

Ex:
Is there anybody here?.
(¿is der enibodi jir?)

you.
(enibodi in di ofis will jelp iu)
(cualquiera en la oficina te
ayudara)
