Let"s solve this exercise step by step to better understand the use of quantifiers.

1. There are no items in my empty purse.
Translation: В моем пустом кошельке нет ни одной вещи.

Explanation: In this sentence, we use the quantifier "no" to indicate that there are zero items in the purse. "No" is used when we want to express the absence or lack of something.

2. I don"t have any interest in collecting Pokemon cards.
Translation: У меня нет никакого интереса к сбору карточек Pokemon.

Explanation: In this sentence, we use the quantifier "any" to show that there is no interest at all in collecting Pokemon cards. "Any" is commonly used in negative sentences to indicate a lack of something or when the quantity is unknown or unrestricted.

3. We have a few tasks left to complete the project.
Translation: У нас осталось несколько задач для завершения проекта.

Explanation: In this sentence, we use the quantifier "a few" to indicate that there are a small number of tasks left. "A few" suggests that there is a positive quantity, although it may not be many.

4. Are there any ducks in the pond?
Translation: Есть ли утки в пруду?

Explanation: In this sentence, we use the quantifier "any" in a question form to ask if there are ducks in the pond. Again, "any" is used because we are unsure of the quantity and want to know if there are ducks present at all.

5. Is there a grocery store in this shopping mall?
Translation: Есть ли продуктовый магазин в этом торговом центре?

Explanation: In this sentence, we use the quantifier "a" to indicate the existence of a singular grocery store in the shopping mall. "A" is used to refer to a single, indefinite item.

6. Watching too much TV
Translation: Смотреть слишком много телевизора.

Explanation: We don"t use any quantifiers in this sentence. However, it is important to note that "too much" can be considered an informal quantifier, indicating an excessive amount.
