Just think of it as an argument that you might have with a friend, family member, etc. If someone says "Someone in the family makes bread" and you want to prove them wrong, you might retort "No, no one in the family makes bread". To be very specific (and not cause confusion), you might say "Everyone in the family does NOT make bread". Note: you need to say that EVERYONE does not since if one does, then your argument is false.


So this shows us that the negation of "someone" is "everyone" and the opposite of "Someone in the family makes bread" is "Everyone in the family does NOT make bread"
