anything or any thing

[xander]

I am never sure when to use anything or any thing.

Hello xander,

Well, I've had quite the time trying to post this answer! Attempt #4.

Here is a link that explains the one word "anything". It delineates the 4 uses: pronoun, adverb, noun, idiom.

With "any thing", I'd treat it as two words meaning whatever object.

I hope this helps you!
