Find a word related or connected to S O M E

Question

The idea is to find an English word (synonym –- antonym -- phrase or idiom ) related to the word – some ( pronoun – adjective ) or any word containing the word “some”

and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word. (not some)

Examples:

I would like some apples please.

Me gustaría algunas manzanas por favor.

Pictures would be nice.

[This link might help you find some ideas.]2

Mariana has kindly agreed to be the “official” corrector of the Spanish.

I think I can manage being the “unofficial” corrector for the English, je je
