# anywhere

«anywhere» in the English dictionary: everyday and in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## Everyday

1. Anywhere means in, at or to any place. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/A/anywhere/#m1)
2. Not anywhere means in no place. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/A/anywhere/#m2)

### In the lessons

In everyday life, «Sit anywhere you like» means any seat. In questions and negatives: «Have you seen my bag anywhere?», «I can't find it anywhere.» In safety, «Don't go anywhere with a stranger» means not to any place at all. In maths problems, «anywhere from 5 to 10» means any number in that range. In stories «anywhere in the world» shows a very wide choice.
