1. One rule for indefinite pronouns is subject-verb agreement. For example, when using "everybody" as the subject, the verb should be singular ("everybody is"), while for plural pronouns like "both," the verb should be plural ("both are").
2. Another rule is to avoid double negatives when using indefinite pronouns, like "anybody," "nobody," or "nothing," to prevent confusion and ensure clear communication.
3. Make sure to choose the correct form of the pronoun based on context - for instance, using "someone" for a singular context and "some" for plural contexts.
