Etymology
The word 'anymore' originated in the late Middle English period as 'ani more,' which literally means 'any more.' The term evolved from the Old English 'รฆnig,' meaning 'any,' combined with 'more,' stemming from the Proto-Germanic word 'maiwa.' Over time, it transitioned into a distinct adverb form specifically used in American and some British English dialects. The usage of 'anymore' in negative constructions highlights a linguistic shift towards expressing negation in contemporary English. In American English, it gained traction in the early 20th century, while in British English, forms like 'any longer' are more commonly used. Nonetheless, 'anymore' has solidified its place in everyday language, especially in colloquial speech.
