Python 3. How to find any member of one list in another list?

I have first list: x = ["abc", "cde", .... "sadlfj"] and the second list. y = ["ABC", "DRF", .... "CXV"] I need to check the following condition: if any member of list "x" is in the list "y", then TRUE. How to write this condition check without iteration? Thank you

Try sets, since you ask for the condition, not the actual elements in common:

x = [...]
y = [...]

if not set(x).isdisjoint(set(y)):
     # they have something in common
