149. The Indefinite Pronouns quis, any one, and quī, any, are declined like the corresponding Interrogatives, but qua is commonly used for quae except in the nominative plural feminine:—

SUBSTANTIVE: quis , any one; quid , anything.
ADJECTIVE: quī , qua ( quae ), quod , any.

a. The feminine forms qua and quae are sometimes used substantively.

b. The indefinites quis and quī are rare except after , nisi , , and num , and in compounds (see § 310. a, b).

Note.--After these particles quī is often used as a substantive and quis as an adjective (cf. § 148. b. N.).
