Re: I don't have brothers or sisters. Thank you, David.
<situation A>
Q:Do you have any brothers or sisters?
A:No, I don't have any brothers or sisters.(meaning I'm an "only child".)
<situation B>
Q:Do you have a brother or a sister?(meaning "which" do you have?)
A:I have a brother(a sister).
I can't think of situations where "I don't have a brother or a sister." might be
used.
However, I realized that there is a difference in meaning between "Do you have any brothers or sisters?" and "Do you have a brother or a sister?" |
