Hello, Michelle.

How are you?

I am good, Aubrey.

Aubrey, do you have any plans this weekend?

Yes, we're getting together with some very good friends that we don't see very often.

They live here in town, but they're so busy.

She's an attorney, an adoption attorney, actually.

And they travel a ton, and they're just so busy, so we don't see them nearly as often as we'd like.

And we're getting together with them, so I'm excited.

We'll go to dinner or something.

What about you?

Any fun plans?

Do I have any fun plans?

Good question.

Oh, yes.

My family is coming to town.

So, yes, we are going to do some fun things, I'm sure.

And go maybe explore the area, show them around, go to some restaurants.

Yeah, so it should be fun.

Well, you'll notice that we both said any when we were asking about plans.

This is the most often we'll say any fun plans.

Do you have any fun plans?

We got a great question about this word, any.

We use it so many ways in English.

We're going to dive into this today.

Do you want to read the question for us, Michelle?

Sure.

So this question came to us on a YouTube.

It's from Bayadomi1893.

And this listener says, Hello, after the eight different ways to use some in English episode, I would be interested in eight different ways to use any in English.

Any is far more difficult for me.

Thank you.

Great question.

Yes.

So yeah, we did do an episode in April of 2025.

If you want to listen to the episode about some, it was episode 2387, eight different ways to use some in English.

So check that out.

That's really good to think about these two words together because they can get confusing.

Yeah.

And we do use them both so many different ways.

They have so many functions in English, right?

So I'm excited to dive into this, but guys, be sure to hit follow wherever you listen to the podcast, both on YouTube, right?

We have the All Ears English YouTube channel.

If you like to watch the podcast on video and also the podcast, wherever you find your podcast, just search All Ears English and hit follow.

And let's dive in here, Michelle.

We have eight

different ways to use any that we're going to share today

and the first is questions just like Michelle

and I both asked any fun plans this weekend we use any this way to check someone's availability

or to ask about plans yes exactly um

and yeah you'll notice like we yeah we could say do you have any right fun plans

but in a in a kind of more casual way oh any fun plans um

so that's fun chop

that off right do you have any fun fun plans this weekend we'll just say any fun plans

or even if i were to ask you like do you have any peanut butter

if i'm like borrowing something from you then we could also

just be like oh any peanut butter over there right yeah

just cut off the first of the question yeah um

so yeah it's neutral it's open-ended um

and you don't know the answer right you when you ask me any fun plans you don't know right um so

Which is often what differentiates it from some, right?

I might say like, oh, do you have some peanut butter?

It's like, I know that you have some.

I'm asking for some really.

But any does imply more often that we don't know.

I'm asking if you have any of something.

Yes.

So here's an example.

Do you have any free time today?

So sometimes we can chop off the beginning, but not always.

We could do a whole follow-up of that probably.

Right.

And then is there any coffee left?

You could for sure.

Any coffee left.

Or do you have any questions?

Right.

And you could also just be like any questions.

Yeah. So great.

So yeah, questions.

And then the second way is any plus noun as a negative.

So meaning zero or none.

So for example, well, okay.

It emphasizes that the amount is zero.

there there's none right so for example I don't have any money exactly

or she didn't give me any advice exactly so

if you think about the difference between saying I don't have money or she didn't give me advice,

adding any here emphasizes like absolutely none, none at all.

Yeah.

That's an interesting use where we'll use it to emphasize.

Yes.

And what's the third way?

All right.

The third is when there's no restriction.

Like it doesn't matter which one, it could be any of something you're giving someone sort of an open choice.

For example, pick any seat.

They're all the same.

100

So you're saying any one of these doesn't matter which one.

101

Or you can call me at any time.

102

Yeah, you might say that if your friend is going through a hard time and you're saying, oh, you can call me at any time, I will always be there for you.

103

So it doesn't matter which time.

104

Or I'm free any day.

105

So I might say if I'm trying to make plans with a friend, oh, I'm free any day this week.

106

Next week's a little busier.

107

Yes.

108

And this again, emphasizes that it doesn't matter anyone.

109

Cause you could say like, call me sometime or I'll be free someday.

110

Very different meaning, right?

111

With any, we're wanting to emphasize that any day would work.

112

Any time would work.

113

Right.

114

Um, let's move on to the fourth way it is any plus comparatives

115

so this actually strengthens the comparisons a little bit

116

so for example this isn't any better than before

117

or are you feeling any stronger today

118

so yeah that's a great way to emphasize you could just say this isn't better than before

119

but when we add

120

that any it gives emphasis right this really isn't any better

121

that's right okay what about number five aubry all right five we follow any with either longer

122

or further so this means something was happening before

123

but is not going to continue and it's comparing the past situation to the present

124

so for example she can't stay here any longer

125

or i don't want to discuss this any further yeah and

126

so this is a fun way that we use any to just to share

127

that something is not going to happen any longer yes

128

and something important to note is

129

that um the word anymore is often used in the same way

130

but it becomes one word so for example she doesn't work here anymore or i don't talk to him anymore.

131

Exactly.

132

It replaces either any longer, any further.

133

We'll just replace that with anymore.

134

One word.

135

Hey, quick question.

136

Do you want to feel more confident when you speak English?

137

If so, we made a free guide for you.

138

It'll help you avoid those common mistakes and start speaking more naturally in real conversations.

139

Go grab it in the description below.

140

And if this is helpful for you make sure that you like

141

and subscribe we're here five times a week to help you connect in English all right number six

142

if any so this is interesting this usually comes at the end of a sentence it's an add-on

143

and it suggests that the amount may be zero

144

and it's interesting how we use it to soften a statement

145

it sort of sounds cautious right it does it does sound a little cautious right

146

so for example there were very few mistakes if any

147

so we could have just cut it off we don't need to add

148

if any it's just kind of an add-on like we said um

149

or he showed little interest if any yeah

150

when i add this it's more

151

that i'm sort of hedging my bets i'm saying i think there wasn't very much of this

152

and as i finished my statement yes you're realize there may have been none.

153

And so I'm almost correcting myself.

154

Right?

155

Right.

156

Yes.

157

You could either say like, there were very few mistakes.

158

In fact, I don't think there were any that's so long.

159

Instead, we'll just add if any.

160

And that clarifies that actually there may have been none, but I'm saying it in very few words.

161

Right.

162

This is kind of a very stream of consciousness thing to add.

163

It's like, you know, in the moment you're like, oh, if any, right.

164

It's, it's, It is something very real time.

165

We have a lot of those in English because we do think as we speak, right?

166

We don't always know the end of what we're about to say.

167

And so we're adjusting as we go.

168

This is a little chunk that we have to add on

169

that means a lot of words right yeah in fact there might be none yeah exactly

170

so that one's i like this one it's very interesting um

171

so here's the seventh not plus any plus noun um

172

and this emphasizes the point So this is used for showing surprise or disbelief or attitude.

173

What else, Aubrey?

174

Yeah, it highlights that something is not typical or maybe special.

175

It's really casual.

176

It's very native.

177

We do this a lot.

178

So for example, I might say, that wasn't any kind of apology, right?

179

And there are multiple ways to do this.

180

I could just say, like, that was not an apology.

181

but we'll use any this way in the same, instead of like emphasizing not, we'll use any to emphasize that there is none at all.

182

Right.

183

Or, um, this isn't any ordinary restaurant, right?

184

So you're just, yeah.

185

Emphasizing this is a really special place.

186

It means the same as this is no ordinary restaurant.

187

Sort of another way of saying that this isn't any, this isn't just any ordinary restaurant

188

or he's not just any kind of leader then you're gonna

189

specify like what makes him yes like you'll probably add something on like oh he's a caring leader he's

190

that right something like

191

that all right number eight are we ready this is a

192

lot of ways I know this is a lot guys okay we got it okay number eight is indefinite pronouns

193

so that's anyone anything anywhere

194

so we're combining it here with another word to create a new meaning

195

and these all become one word they're written together as one word

196

and they're going to refer to an unspecified person thing

197

or place yes um and yeah these are used all the time in conversations

198

so very very useful you'll hear them you'll use them um

199

so for example i didn't see anyone exactly we're asking right did you see anyone And this, it's interesting how it leaves it open to,

200

we're not asking about specific people, right?

201

Or do you want anything to eat?

202

And this is very open.

203

I'm not talking about specific foods, anything at all.

204

Or this is interesting because even on my notes, it looks like it wants to correct it to somewhere.

205

I don't know if you see that on yours, but let's go.

206

Interesting.

207

Yeah.

208

So it's let's go anywhere quiet.

209

If you're saying this on its own, you probably would say, let's go somewhere quiet.

210

But when it's a response to something, we would say this.

211

So I can kind of see why by itself, you know, our notes is wanting to correct itself.

212

So if someone says like, where do you want to go?

213

You could totally say anywhere quiet.

214

You're saying, I don't care where, doesn't matter, just as long as it's someplace quiet, any place quiet.

215

Yeah, this is a very conversational, right?

216

Not might not be completely correct on, you know, when you're typing it in.

217

And I'm curious, Michelle, I find myself saying any place, which might be more about my regional dialect.

218

I know it's not grammatically incorrect, but do you hear that a lot?

219

Someone saying any place instead of anywhere?

220

I'd be like, let's go any place quiet.

221

Where do you want to go?

222

Any place.

223

Yeah, I would say it's more anywhere at least where I am.

224

Interesting.

225

But any place is kind of cute.

226

I like it.

227

I like it too.

228

And I'm realizing I think where I'm from, we say that even more.

229

So you're going to hear it.

230

Neither are wrong.

231

I'm sure they're both in the dictionary.

232

This is all about regional dialects and the different words that people are used to hearing and used to using.

233

Yes, exactly.

234

All right.

235

So should we do a role play and mix this all up?

236

Let's do it.

237

Yes.

238

You and I are friends.

239

We are talking about a mutual friend Mark.

240

Mark hasn't reached out or contacted us in some time.

241

How dare he?

242

Oh, Mark.

243

Okay, I'll start us out.

244

Ready?

245

Do you have any idea what's going on with Mark lately?

246

No, I haven't heard anything from him.

247

Me neither.

248

He hasn't responded to any of my texts.

249

He answered some of my texts recently, but he isn't really sharing much, so it doesn't make me feel any better.

250

He definitely seems more distant than usual.

251

Yeah, at this point, I'd take any explanation.

252

Honestly, I'm getting a little worried

253

same do you think there's any chance he's just busy maybe i'm just not sure yeah

254

if there's any issue i wish he'd just say it yeah

255

so we used a bunch of them here

256

and it didn't feel this is one of those things where it doesn't feel strange to have any

257

so many times in one conversation we use it a lot

258

i'm sure you guys hear it a lot it's just a matter of knowing functional word right It's very functional.

259

I think that's why.

260

It's not a content word.

261

And so we squeeze it in everywhere for all of these different purposes.

262

Yeah.

263

Yeah, exactly.

264

So you said, do you have any idea what's going on with Mark lately?

265

So again, that's a question.

266

And you could remove that hole for the first three words, right?

267

You could just say, any idea what's going on with Mark?

268

And we often will do that.

269

They're not needed.

270

They're sort of implied the rest of the sentence.

271

I would say it does make it a little bit more casual.

272

if I'm thinking about the difference, don't you think?

273

Yeah, a little bit, right?

274

It's very conversational.

275

You might keep those words in if you're presenting

276

or talking at work or with someone you've just met for the first time.

277

But among friends, I would almost always drop it and just be like, hey, any idea what's up with Mark?

278

Great.

279

And then I said, no, I haven't heard anything from him.

280

So this means I haven't gotten any texts or phone calls, right?

281

I haven't heard from him at all.

282

I could say I haven't heard anything from him.

283

Mm-hmm.

284

And then it was, he hasn't responded to any of my texts.

285

So there are many texts.

286

Yes, but he's not a single one.

287

Yes.

288

Yeah, that definitely implies you've sent more than one, right?

289

We wouldn't say this if we had only sent one text.

290

This means you've sent multiple, and he hasn't responded to any of them.

291

Yep.

292

Yeah, and then I said, oh, that doesn't make me feel any better.

293

Yeah, so this is a great way to emphasize, like, not at all.

294

Mm-hmm.

295

And then I'd take any explanation.

296

Okay.

297

So any one of anything he wants to give me.

298

All of the possible explanations someone could give you for totally like never talking to you.

299

You're like, I'll take it.

300

I just, at this point, I'm worried.

301

Is he okay?

302

I need proof of life.

303

And then do you think there's any chance he's just busy?

304

And this is a chunk we use a lot.

305

You know, we'll say like, any chance you're free later?

306

Any chance you think they're just busy?

307

And this is kind of a chunk we use together.

308

Yeah.

309

Yes.

310

And then I said, if there's any issue, I wish he'd just say it. So, yeah.

311

So this is about like, if he has a problem with me and that's why he's not texting me, I wish he'd let me know.

312

Right.

313

Any issue.

314

I don't mind.

315

Just tell me so that I know what's going on.

316

Yes, exactly. So takeaway for today.

317

So any is a really flexible word.

318

As you can tell, there are so many different ways to use it.

319

And then, of course, there's anything, anyone, anywhere.

320

And it helps you sound more natural and avoid being too direct.

321

So it's really helpful for showing openness or doubt even or just adding emphasis to something.

322

So there are many different ways.

323

We went over eight today.

324

If you have any, you know, further questions about these, because we know it's a lot, you know, write in and say, oh, I was can you share more examples of this one

325

or i was a little confused by this one

326

so we're happy to continue talking about this

327

because it is it is really a lot of information

328

so especially like some versus any is tricky so

329

if you listen to

330

that first episode eight ways to use some compare it to this i think

331

that will help you to realize when when we use some when we use any and then just

332

being observant as you're taking in english when you're listening to podcasts and tv shows notice

333

when they're using any and when they're using some.

334

And we also want to share a fun episode that we just recorded recently.

335

If you missed it, scroll up and check out 2688.

336

Come in guns blazing with these English idioms.

337

There's a lot of idioms that we use in English.

338

Oh, you know what?

339

That's actually the next episode.

340

That's a little prequel for what you're going to hear from Lindsay and I tomorrow.

341

Ooh, very exciting.

342

Don't miss it.

343

Awesome.

344

Thanks, Michelle fun episode and I will see you next time.

345

All right.

346

Bye Aubrey.

347

Thanks guys.

348

And thanks to our listener for that great question.

349

Yes.

350

Thank you.

351

Bye-bye.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
