She didn't use to like chocolate, but she does now. I didn't use to want to have a nice house.

Indefinite pronouns Please, open your books, p. 79 and try to do exercise 7. After that, please read the explanation below. - We usually use someone, something and somewhere in positive sentences to mean one person/thing/place. Someone bought their clothes for them. - We usually use anyone, anything and anywhere in negative sentences and questions to mean one person/thing/place. Men didn t use to do anything like that. - We can use body or one for people: somebody = someone, anybody = anyone, nobody = no one, everybody = everyone. - No one, nothing, and nowhere mean not one person/thing/place. These words are negative and we use them with a positive verb. No one likes it. None s surprised anymore. - Everyone, everything, and everywhere have a plural meaning, but we use these words with a singular verb. Everyone is watching the breaking news.
