• WE use "SOME" in affirmative sentences
• It means that we don't know exactly which person, place or thing.

We use "EVERY" when we refer to "ALL" (people, place , thing) WE use it in affirmative sentences.

We use "ANY" in negative and questions

We use ANYBODY/ANYONE, ANYTHING, ANYWHERE in negative sentences when there is a negative particle ( a negative auxiliary verb ) like: isn't, didn't, can't, etc. We also use them in questions. Look at the examples

"No-one/Nobody, Nothing, Nowhere

"Who did you meet yesterday?" Nobody "What do you have in your mouth?" Nothing "Where did you go for your last summer holidays?" Nowhere
