anyways or anyway?

[vladz]

It has become an expression in my my country but I don't know the distinction of those words. When do we say "anyway" and "anyways"? Does "anyways" exist?

Thanks again.

'Anyways' is colloquial and more suitable used in speech than in writing. :wink:

It's also American. Some people also say "anywho". (Seems to be quite trendy these days)

Anyways, do you have any idea why the 's' tails behind anyway?

In any case, 'anyway(s)' is not proper in formal writing.
Thanks, Cassie.
