Correct Forms Common Errors

I didn't bring anything to drink. I didn't bring nothing to drink.

I don't know anybody at the party. I don't know nobody at the party.
There isn't anywhere else to go. There isn't nowhere else to go.

 The words nothing, nobody, nowhere are already negative; consequently, you do
not use these words with "not." The following paired sentences are
interchangeable:
o I do not know anybody in my apartment building.   I know noboby in my
apartment building.

o I don't know anything about it.   I know nothing about it.

Did you understand anything I said? Did you understand something I said?

 We usually use anything, anybody, anywhere when asking questions, although

this is not a hard and fast rule..

There is nobody here. There is no body here. (This means that

there is no dead body here.)

 The combination words somebody, something, somewhere, etc. are spelled as

one word, not two. The only exception to this rule is the word no one.
