Se usa 'any' normalmente con sustantivos en plural o incontables en oraciones negativas. 'Bike' es un sustantivo contable singular; en negativo se debe usar 'a' o el plural 'any bikes'. La corrección cambia 'any bike' por 'a bike'. Sugerencia: en oraciones negativas con sustantivos contables singulares utilice 'a' (No, I didn't have a bike) o convierta a plural con 'any' (No, I didn't have any bikes).
× Of course they are very popular, however I still haven't any bike so because I can't afford one right right now.
✓ Of course they are very popular; however, I still don't have a bike because I can't afford one right now.
La frase 'I still haven't any bike' es incorrecta en inglés moderno; la estructura 'haven't' seguida de un sustantivo contable requiere 'got' ('haven't got a bike') o usar 'do' en forma negativa con 'have' ('don't have a bike'). Además hay redundancia 'so because' y repetición 'right right now'. Se corrigió a 'I still don't have a bike' y se eliminó la redundancia. Sugerencia: use 'I don't have' para posesión en presente simple o 'I haven't got' como alternativa británica; evite 'so because' y repeticiones como 'right right now'.
