Hi,

My question may sound a bit stupid but I have a doubt...

Would you say " I don �t have any brother and sister" or "I don �t have any brothers and sisters" or both?

thanks for replying ;)

Hello, Steph. I would say "I don �t have any brothers or sisters". Hugs and have a nice Sunday.

all right, I wouldn �t have used plural here but one of my friends said we could use both and then we both had a doubt....

Hi, steph30! :))

It is correct to use the plural here, so lagringa is absolutely right.

Have a nice evening - Ladybird
