I have an English conversation question?

[Unregistered]

When you go to a store, a saleclerk may come to you and say "Are you looking for anything/something spectacularly/specifically/particularly?"

Which is correct? and if more than one answer possible, which one is used most frequently

All of these might be heard:

Are you looking for something specific?
Are you looking for anything specific?
Are you looking for anything in particular?
Are you looking particularly for something?


Spectacularly would never be used - it would make no sense in the context.

Once i said:

Love isn't anything to be ashamed of.


My teacher corrected as:

Love isn't something to be ashamed of.

If
Are you looking for something specific? = Are you looking for anything in particular?

then may be i was right on using 'anything'.

Your sentence seems fine to me.
