the first question’s answer is wrong
Why? We use some in affirmative sentences and any in questions and negatives. So, the correct sentence is Have you got any oil?
Thanks mam
why can’t we use some in questions?
I don’t know. That is the rule. Use some in affirmative sentences and any in questions and negatives. These rules weren’t made by me. Some can be used in questions when we encourage people to do something or to have something. Example: Would you like some more coffee?
There should be some please don’t take english always with laws please try once to speak also because laws or rules of english grammer are not true at all situations hence we should try some of them by speaking
Spoken English is rarely grammatical and that is not a problem at all. These worksheets are for students preparing for exams. They have to choose grammatically correct answers.
No it is correct and you are wrong . The answer is any itself.
yes you are right man
Very good questions . But make other options in use.
Achhi practice I have scored better so dont take any taintion
judging by your grammar, you should take some “taintion”
~tension*
*tension
Easy to solve, but the chapter’s name sounds scaring
Really? The words like much, many, some, any, little, few etc., are called determiners.
Yes it isn’t scary but hard for who does not practice.
Thank u for all questions tomorrow is my exam and today I m well prepared thank u so much…..
