You're welcome.
Of course! Indefinite pronouns are used to refer to nonspecific people or things. They don't refer to any particular person or thing, but rather to an unspecified number or amount. Here are some examples of indefinite pronouns used in sentences:
1. "Everybody loves ice cream." - Here, "everybody" is an indefinite pronoun referring to an unspecified number of people. It means "every person."
2. "Somebody left their umbrella in the hallway." - In this sentence, "somebody" is an indefinite pronoun indicating an unknown or unspecified person.
3. "Several students are absent today." - "Several" is an indefinite pronoun used to describe an unspecified number of students.
4. "Both of them prefer tea over coffee." - "Both" is an indefinite pronoun referring to an unspecified number of people or things.
5. "Nothing is impossible if you put your mind to it." - In this sentence, "nothing" is an indefinite pronoun representing the absence of anything.
Remember, these are just a few examples of indefinite pronouns used in sentences. There are many more, including "anyone," "everyone," "no one," "anything," "everything," "many," "few," "several," "some," "any," and so on.
