Answer and Explanation:
If you are having a hard time figuring out which word goes into the black, try plugging all the words in to see if it makes sense.
I didn't sleep ___ hours last night
I didn't sleep <em><u>some</u></em> hours last night.
- This doesn't sound right; <em>Some</em> can be used for plural nouns, but because of the way this sentence is structured, it can't be applied.
I didn't sleep <em><u>any </u></em>hours last night.
- Another way of saying any (in this case) is <em><u>at all</u></em>, which would mean the sentence needs to be restructured, which we can't do.
I didn't sleep <em><u>no</u></em> hours last night
.
- This isn't correct, because it contains a double negative, which is when two negative words are used in the same clause (group of words containing a verb) to explain a single negative idea.
I didn't sleep <em><u>much</u></em> hours last night.
- Due to hours being a countable plural noun, we can't use much, therefore this is incorrect.
I didn't sleep <em><u>many</u></em><em> </em>hours last night.
- This is correct! If you wanted to replace an amount of hours slept (or not slept), you can use many to show you slept for x amount of time without being specific.
