'Some', ' Any' and ' no article.

 "Some" and "any" are both words used to talk about indefinite or not very large numbers or amounts when we don't know exactly how many or how much we need.

"Any" is typically used in negative sentences, questions, or in sentences that express doubt or uncertainty. It is also used in affirmative sentences with the meaning of "it doesn't matter which one" or "it doesn't matter how much." For example:

• I don't have any money. (negative sentence)
• Do you have any siblings? (question)
• I don't know if there are any seats available. (doubt or uncertainty)
• You can take any seat you want. (affirmative with the meaning of "it doesn't matter which one")

"Some" is typically used in affirmative sentences, but can also be used in questions when the speaker believes the answer will be positive. It is used to indicate an indefinite, but positive, number or amount. For example:

• I have some money. (affirmative sentence)
• Would you like some cake? (question with the assumption of a positive answer)
• Let's buy some groceries. (affirmative sentence)

When we use "no article," we are indicating that there is no need for a determiner because the noun is either general, plural, or uncountable. For example:

• I like pizza. (general noun)
• I bought some apples. (plural noun)
• I need milk. (uncountable noun)
