ضمیر مفرد نامعین برای اشیاء (Singular Indefinite Pronouns)
کاربرد
معنی
Indefinite pronouns (ضمیر نامعین)
در جملات سوالی و منفی
یک چیز فارغ از اینکه چه چیزی باشد
anything
منفی
هیچ چیز
nothing
جملات مثبت
همه ی اشیاء
everything
جملات مثبت
یک چیز
something
I've been friends with Hossein for over five years and nothing surprises me about him
من نزدیک به 5 سال هست که با حسین دوست هستم و هیچ چیز نسبت به او من را سورپرایز نمی کند
به این جمله دقت کنید ، با وجود اینکه nothing به اشیاء جمع اشاره دارد ولی فعل پس از آن مفرد آمده است.
If you ever need something, you can count on me
هر زمان به چیزی نیاز داشتی، رو من حساب کن.
در این مثال نیز گوینده می گوید یک چیز مشخص نشده است ، در اینجا می تواند به هرچیزی اشاره شود.
اشاره ی مجدد به ضمایر نامعین
یکی از دلایلی که کاربرد این ضمایر را دشوار می کند، استفاده از ضمیر یا بهتر است گفت دلالت ثانویه به این ضمایر است. با وجود اینکه افعال بعد از این قبیل ضمایر مفرد می آیند ولی اگر بخواهیم به آن ها مجدد اشاره کنیم باید از ضمایر جمع استفاده کنیم! به مثال های پیش رو دقت کنید:
Everybody watched the show. They really liked it
همه نمایش را تماشا کردند. آنها واقعاً خوششان آمد.
Let's tell somebody that we're ready to go. They have been waiting for a long time
بیایید به کسی بگوییم که ما آماده رفتن هستیم. آنها مدتها منتظر بودند.
به دو مثال بالا دقت کنید، با وجود اینکه در هر دو مثال از دو ضمیر نامعین مفرد برای افراد به کار رفته شده است ولی هنگامی که مجدد به آن ضمایر اشاره شده است گوینده از ضمیر جمع بهره گرفته است.
معمولا ما نمی توانیم ضمایر را با اضافی کرد 's ملکی کنیم ولی در مورد ضمایر نامعین بدین گونه نمی باشد ما در هر شرایطی قادر هستیم با اضافه کردن یک اپستروف s آن ها را ملکی کنیم.
?Is this anybody's wallet
این کیف پول کیست؟
They were staying in somebody's house
آنها در خانه فردی اقامت داشتند.

The new servant came. He was about thirty years old.
'You are French,' said Phileas Fogg, 'and your name is John?'
'No,' said the new servant. 'My name is Jean, Mr Fogg. They call me Jean Passepartout, because in French a "passepartout" can open every door. When things are bad, I can always get out. I can get out of anything!'
"Tell me about your work,' said Phileas Fogg.
'I am a good man, and I can do a lot of different jobs,' said Jean Passepartout. 'I was a fireman in Paris. And ... look!' Passepartout did a high jump, then put his left leg and then his right leg on his head. He was a strong man.
'But I left France in 1867,' said Passepartout, and I came to England. I want to be a servant. I am looking for a quiet life. People say that you are the quietest man in Britain. So I want to work for you. I want to live quietly now. I want to forget the name "Passepartout".
'I'll call you Passepartout,' said Phileas Fogg. 'What time is it?"
Passepartout pulled out a big watch and looked at it. 'It is 11.29, Mr Fogg,' he said.
All right. From now, 11.29 on 2nd October 1872, you are my
servant.'
With those words, Phileas Fogg put on his hat and went out. There was nobody in the house, then, only Passepartout.
'Here I am,' the Frenchman thought. 'But what do I do?'
He went into every room in the house. He found his room, and in it there was a timetable. Everything was there, starting from 8 o'clock. Phileas Fogg got up at that time.
8.23 Bring tea.
9.37 Bring washing water (31°C).
11.30 PF goes to the Reform Club.
Then, from 11.30 in the morning to midnight, everything was on the timetable. Mr Fogg always went to bed at midnight.
Passepartout smiled. 'This is right for me,' he thought. 'Mr Fogg is the man for me!'
timetable (n) A timetable shows the times when trains, buses, boats, or airplanes leave.

The Discussion
It was 6.10 in the evening at the Reform Club. Phileas Fogg was in the chess room. He was at a chess table with the same five men as yesterday and the day before and the day before that.
Phileas Fogg and the five men didn't usually talk when they played chess. But this evening, before the game started, the men talked about a newspaper story. A thief walked into the Bank of England and took fifty-five thousand pounds. Then he walked out again. One of the men at the chess table, Ralph, had a very good job at the Bank of England.
'They'll catch the man,' Ralph said. 'The best detectives are at every port. They know that the man is tall. He wears expensive clothes. They'll find him.'
'Oh, I don't know,' said Stuart, another man at the table. 'The world is a very big place.'
'It was a big place,' said Phileas Fogg.
'What do you mean - "was"? Is it smaller now?' said Stuart.
'Yes,' said Ralph. 'I think Mr Fogg is right. You can go round the world more quickly now.'
'All right,' said Stuart. 'You can go round the world in about three months, but that doesn't mean ...'
'Not three months,' said Phileas Fogg. 'Eighty days.'
'Fogg's right,' said Ralph. "The Rothal to Allahabad railway, in India, is open now. Look - today's Times has a timetable for a journey round the world.' And he showed them, on the centre page of the paper.
_London to Suez - railway and ship/7 days
_Suez to Bombay - ship/ 13 days
_Bombay to Calcutta – railway/ 3 days
_Calcutta to Hong Kong - ship/ 13 days
_Hong Kong to Yokohama – ship/ 6 days
_Yokohama to San Francisco - ship/ 22 days
_San Francisco to New York - railway/ 7 days
_New York to London - ship and railway/ 9 days
"80 days"
'Yes,' said Stuart, 'eighty days. It's all right on paper. But a lot of things can happen in eighty days. They can stop you on the way.'
'No, they can't, Mr Stuart,' said Phileas Fogg.
'Well, why don't you try, Mr Fogg?'
'Go round the world in eighty days?' said Phileas Fogg. 'All right. I have twenty thousand pounds in Baring's Bank. I'll bet all of it.'
'Twenty thousand pounds!' cried Ralph. 'Something will happen on the journey, and you'll lose all your money.'
'Nothing will stop me,' Phileas Fogg said.
In the end, Phileas Fogg's five friends took the bet.
'Each person will pay you four thousand pounds - that's twenty thousand pounds – when we see you again here in the Reform Club in eighty days at the end of your journey round the world,' said Ralph. 'Or you have to pay us twenty thousand pounds. That's the bet.'
Phileas Fogg thought for a minute. 'Today is Wednesday, 2nd October. So I have to be back here, in this room in the Reform Club, on Saturday, 21st December at 8.45 in the evening.'
thief (n) A thief takes things from people or buildings. Thieves don't pay for things or
give them back.
port (n) A port is a place by the sea. Ships arrive and leave from there.
railway (n) Trains run on railways. Railway companies sell tickets for their trains.
bet (v/n) You bet money because you want to win more money. You win when something happens. You lose when you are wrong.
