Thank you, Ripley |
I agree with RonBee.
In addition, 'anything' means, any (one) thing, whereas 'everything' means, all things, so
everything is the better choice of the two for sentence (1):
(1) I must remember to bring
everything I need when I go on holiday.
As for sentence (2), the verb is missing:
(2) I must remember
to bring something I need when I go on holiday.
But even with 'to bring', the sentence still sounds odd. The reason being, 'something' is non-specific, whereas 'I need' expresses a specific need, so 'something' doesn't work because it's not compatible with 'need'. Let's try a noun that's more specific like, 'the things':
(3) I must remember to brings
the things I need when I go on holiday.
