Why can't I say nobody instead of no one?

Why can't I say nobody instead of no one?

I genuinely have no idea why this is wrong to use "nobody" here

Dear Americans, how do you pronounce the word “interim”

I’ve always pronounced it as “in-te-rum” but recently I heard my American manager say it like “intrum” is this how Americans pronounce this word? Which pronunciation is more widely used?

native English speakers, when you pronounce the s sound, is the tip of your tongue down toward your bottom teeth or up behind your top teeth?

Do I have to make my voice deeper when I speak English?

Do I have to make my voice deeper when I speak English?

I read some information stating that I should lower my vocal tone as deep into my chest as possible. Do you have any advice for this and should I do it? Thanks for all your help

Native speakers, how did you learn English grammar at school?

This might be an odd question but I'm always curious about how native speakers learn English, especially grammar, at school. Obviously, a native speaker master grammar before they "learn" it. So do you still have grammar course at school. And if you do, what's it like? What's the order of learning and what's the textbook like? Do you have any English textbook about grammar you recommend? Thanks!

What are some expressions non-native speakers often use (not necessarily grammatically incorrect) that native speakers typically don’t?

I came across a post the other day that mentioned how the word “kindly” (as in “Could you kindly…?”) often gives off a vibe of non-native speakers or phishing emails. While it’s not grammatically incorrect, native speakers typically don’t phrase things that way. What are some other expressions like that?

American English or British English?

I'm learning English, but I don't know whether to focus on American English or British English. Which one do you recommend?

I'm a native english speaker and I have this question on some English homework. I swear either of the options would work. Am I wrong?

I'm a native english speaker and I have this question on some English homework. I swear either of the options would work. Am I wrong?

As said in the title, I swear that both of these sound correct. I've spoken english for most of my life and this question has stumped me because it seems that both of these options would work.
