Didn't understand this.

E-most-F F-some-E F-some-G G-Some-F Then why not? G-some-F-Some-E?

@r0hangupta some means "at least one."

So effectively, G-some-F means that at least one G is an F.

Similarly, F-some-E means that at least one F is an E.

We cannot conclude from these that there is any overlap between G and E.

As a general rule, you can NEVER make a valid deduction from two some statements.

Hope that helps! For a more in-depth review of these concepts, please watch our lesson on Quantifiers.
