Is anymore one word or two? It depends on how you’re using it. We’re here to set the record straight.
Any More and Anymore: A Detailed Explanation
When spelled as two words, any more refers to quantities.
When spelled as one word, anymore is an adverb that refers to time. It means “at present,” “still,” or “any longer.”
In certain dialects, some speakers use anymore as a synonym of nowadays.
However, this usage is not considered acceptable in formal writing. In fact, it’s a fairly rare usage, so you may want to remove it from your writing altogether unless you’re writing for a very specific audience.
The problem with anymore is the same problem many writers have with words like “anyway”, “anytime”, and “sometime”—each of them can be written as one or two words.
Just remember: If you’re talking about a quantity of something, use any more. If you’re talking about time, use anymore.
