Use of quantifiers some/any
Hello, I did an online exercise to refresh my knowledge of english quantifiers. In the sentence below, the correct answer is "any" according to the author.
I was wondering if the use of "some" could not be more suitable considering the context.
Can you give me any/some of your posters? You have a lot of them!

If you are not sure that they've got posters, use 'any', otherwise 'some' is fine and logical.
