文字稿

Hi, I’m Sam from BBC Learning English, and today we’re looking at the difference between no, not any and none. 

Let’s have a look. Imagine you ask me this question: “Do you have any change?”

I have zero change, and I can say this in three different ways.

“Sorry, I have no change.” – where we use the verb 'have' with no, followed by a noun.

“Sorry, I don’t have any change.” – where we have the negative don’t, followed by the verb, followed by any, followed by the noun.

Or I can say, “Sorry. None at all.” – where we use none without a verb or a noun. So it's a short answer. 

So now you shouldn’t have any problems with this!

用法總結

Three ways to say 'zero'

Do you have any change?
你身上有零錢嗎？

I have zero change.
我一點零錢也沒有。

Or you could say:
你也可以使用以下的這三種表達方式：

1. Verb + no + noun （動詞 + no + 名詞）

• Sorry, I have no change.

2. don’t + verb + any + noun （don't + 動詞 + any + 名詞）

• Sorry, I don’t have any change.

3. None - without a verb or a noun （直接用單詞 “none”，不加動詞或名詞）

• Sorry, none at all.
