something or somebody.

1. some and thing/body are two words that when together make another whole word.

2. something and somebody refer to a whole thing/person.

3. 'For now, only "some" remain(s)'. Specifically half the word remains until the puzzle is solved and the whole word is known.

4. What am I: you are either something or somebody (like say @Edward Nigma)
