@EarleyGrave could you tell me please the difference of, I don't have any books. I don't have a book. I don't have books. I have no book. I haven't any books. I haven't any book? can I respond with any of these options when somebody asks me if I have a book to lend?
- English (US)
"I don't have any books." is the most natural to say.

@EarleyGrave then, it can be said with any noun including "any" plus plural?
- English (US)
@Anth22 "I don't have books." is also correct, but it's more natural to say "any books". It's also correct to leave out "books" if you're replying to a question.
"Do you have books?"
"I don't have any."
In that case it's understood you mean "books".

@Anth22 They sound strange. "I have no books." is almost natural, but the other two are very strange. They are possibly grammatical, but not the kind of speech you'd actually hear (at least not in America).

@Anth22 "I haven't got any books." might work. I would just stick to "I don't have any books.", really, it'll save you a lot of headache. :)

@EarleyGrave friend, could you tell me the difference of flat belly and flat stomach?
- English (US)
@Anth22 They mean the same, but "flat stomach" would be the most natural to say.
