Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
I haven't got _______ paint.

• A. any
• B. none of the above
• C. some
• D. many

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

To answer this question, let us first understand the difference between some and any. 'Some' is used with both countable and uncountable nouns, it is used in positive sentences. "Any'' on the other hand is used in negative sentences or in questions. This is a negative sentence because of the presence of "haven't".

Option A: Is the correct option

Option B: Cannot be used as "some" is only used in positive sentences.

Option C: "Many" is used for countable nouns, but "paint" here is an uncountable noun.

Option D: Is not applicable as Option A is already correct.

Option A is correct.
