1.
  • when all are excluded: quisquam and ullus ( (1) quisquam is used in the sing. only, and as a substantive; never as an adjective, except with personal nouns [e.g., scriptor, hostis, civis, homo: Cic.’s practice is thus given by Sturenburg, using scriptor for the noun. NOM. quisquam (not ullus) scriptor. GEN. cujusquam (not ullius) scriptoris. DAT. cuiquam (not ulli) scriptori. ACC. queuquam or ullum scriptorem. ABL. ullo scriptore: once only, quoquam homine.] and, in Cic., personal nouns of multitude [e.g., ordo, genus hominum, legatio]. (2) Quisquam or ullus is used in negative sentences; in questions where the answer “no” or “none” is expected; and after “than,” “scarcely.” After “without” “any” is aliquis in a negative, ullus in a positive sentence).
  • “Any” when all are included (i.e. = any you please), quilibet, quivis (quivis implies a deliberate, thoughtful choice; quilibet, a blind, inconsiderate one).
  • “Any” after si, nisi, ne, num, quo, quanto, is generally the indefinite quis: but aliquis is used when the “any” is emphatic. Si quis = “if anybody,” without any emphasis: si aliquis = “if anybody,” be he who or what he may (relating to quality): si qoisquam = if there be anyone, though no more (relating to quantity), generally implying that there is probably none.
  • “Any” in interrogations is often ecquio? so after quaerere, cunctari, etc.: “do you ask whether there is any hope?” quaeris ecqua spes sit? [ecquis or ecqui; ecqua or ecquae; ecquid or ecquod: as adjectives.]
  • Any = “some one or other,” “some,” aliquis: quispiam: aliquispiam: (1) aliquis, aliqua, aliquid, substantive; aliquis or aliqui, aliqua, aliquod, adjectives: (2) aliquispiam, quispiam [substantive and adjective], relate to a multitude, intimating that it is immaterial which individual of that number is thought of).
  • Any single person; anyone singly; unus quilibet: quilibet unus: unus quivis.
  • After a negative, “anybody,” “anything,” are often omitted before a relative clause: “I hate not anybody to send, or whom I can send,” non habeo quem mittam.
2.
  • with adverbs.
  • Any where, alicubi, uspiam: usquam (with the same distinction as between aliquis, quispiam, ullus).
  • At anytime, aliquando, quando (the latter when there is no emphasis; especiallyafter si, ne, quo, num, etc.); umquam (after negatives, in questions expecting the answer “no;” after “than,” “scarcely”.
  • Anywhere you please, ubivis: if-any where, sicubi (of rest); si quo (of motion).
  • Anywhere = any whither, aliquo: quopiam: quoquam: usquam (with the same distinction as between aliquis: quispiam: quisquam: ullus). From anywhere, alicunde. If from anywhere, sicunde.
  • Any more than, (after negative), non plus quam, etc.
3. before comparatives: nihilo, without non: the comparative only, non being expressed [his concessis, nihilo magis efficiatur, quod velitis; non feram diutius].
