What part of speech is anything?

"Anything" can be a few different parts of speech, depending on how it's used in a sentence:

* Pronoun: This is the most common usage. It stands in for a noun, referring to something unspecified.

* Adjective: It can modify a noun, meaning "any" or "every."

* Determiner: In some contexts, it acts as a determiner, specifying a quantity, like "any" or "all."

Here are some examples:

* Pronoun: "Did you find anything interesting in the attic?"

* Adjective: "I'm happy with anything you choose."

* Determiner: "I'm not going to eat anything today."

It's important to look at the context of the sentence to determine the specific part of speech.
