Definition of Quantitative Pronouns
Quantitative pronouns refer to an unspecific amount of something. They can talk about quantities without giving a specific number. Examples include “some”, “any”, “none”, “all”, and “few”. These pronouns are handy because they help us communicate about quantities in a general way.
For instance, saying “I ate some cookies” doesn’t specify how many cookies were eaten, just that there were more than one. Similarly, “Do you have any questions?” allows for any number of questions, from zero to many. These pronouns adapt to the context, making them very useful in everyday conversation.
