The indefinite pronoun is a commonly used pronoun. However, not everyone fully understands it. Today Englook will help you learn about indefinite pronouns.
Indefinite Pronouns are words that do not refer specifically to a person or thing but only speak in general terms.
Some common indefinite pronouns are as somebody, anything, all.
Because they are a type of pronoun, indefinite pronouns can appear in the following positions:
For example:
He invited everybody to his birthday party.
