Etymology

The word 'wherever' originated from the combination of 'where' and 'ever'. 'Where' is derived from the Old English word 'hwวฃr', while 'ever' comes from the Old English 'วฃfre'. The fusion of these two words resulted in 'wherever', which has been used in English since the Middle Ages. Over time, it has become a commonly used adverb to indicate any place or situation.

See also: anywhere, everywhere, nowhere, somewhere, where, whereas.
