Indefinite pronouns are pronouns that are used to refer to someone
or something in a general way, without being specific about whom or
what you’re referring to.
The main group of indefinite pronouns is formed by various
combinations of no-, any-, some-, and every- with -thing, -one, and -
body (e.g., “anything”, “anybody”).
The same prefixes combined with -where form indefinite adverbs (e.g.,
“somewhere”), which work similarly but are not technically pronouns.
