anymore-no more

[Jesule]

Hello, how are you?
Thanks for all your replies!


1.- I don´t love you 'anymore'
2.- I don´t love you 'no more'


Are both of them correct to mean that "I was in love
with someone in the past but not at present"?


Thanks a million!

All the best!

Yeah, that's right. Indeed it's "any more" -two words. You also can use "any longer" (at the end of the sentence) and "no longer" (in the middle of the sentence).

Jesule, the 2nd sentence is not correct - there can't be 2 negatives. People do say so, but it's bad grammar.

[MrPedantic]

Yes; there is a difference:

1. I don't love you any more. ] Standard English.

2. I don't love you no more. ] Non-standard English.

All the best,

MrP

The first sentence is correct.

The second one is not correct because there are two negations:
I don`t love you no more - double negation

[dihen]

Yes; there is a difference:
1. I don't love you any more. ]

Wouldn't Americans write "anymore" here, because here it's used as an adverb?

And many British speakers too.

But is it non-standard to write "anymore" as one word in British English?

Hello Dihen

This Oxford online dictionary gives "anymore" as BrE also, so it seems to be standard now:

Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary - enter "Anymore"

All the best,

As far as I know we can say either "I don't love you anymore" or "I love you no more", then both would be correct and mean the same. Still the first choice, the first sentence, is a neutral way of saying it and the second has a more emphatic tone.
Is that it?
