Indefinite pronouns-English Grammar Lesson with Grammar man
**Watch to the end of today's lesson to complete the quiz!**
In today's lesson, Grammar man teaches ESL students the KEY to using indefinite pronouns correctly. Indefinite pronouns include the following:
somebody, someone, something, somewhere
anybody, anyone, anything, anywhere
nobody, no one, nothing, nowhere
everybody, everyone, everything and everywhere.
The key to using all of the pronouns correctly is understanding that some are used mainly in positive statements, some are used predominately in negatives, and some are used mainly in questions.
The rules are clearly explained in this lesson, and there is a QUIZ at the end of the lesson to test your knowledge.

My congrats. This is the best video about this topic on KZread. Very complete and accurate.
Thanks, for the lesson ! You're a great teacher !
Very good explanation of this challenging topic for ESL learners.
I'm confused.... you say we don't use the pronouns anyone, anywhere, anybody & anything in positive clauses. Is that always the case? What about: "Anybody can do that, it's so easy." or "Can you see my keys anywhere?" or "Today's a holiday, we can do anything we like." Are there sentences grammatically incorrect in some way?

These are all correct. "Have you seen my keys anywhere?" is a question and so fits the rule. The other two examples are exceptions (almost always exceptions!), but the rules I've given are applicable the vast majority of the time :)
