 Anyone vs. anyone. This set of words is often confused. Let's take a look at their differences. Anyone, spelled as one word, is a pronoun and indicates any person. It is only used for people, for example. I'm throwing a big birthday party and anyone can come. Anyone, on the other hand, is a phrase made up of two adjectives, any and one, and means any single object or person, for example. I cannot think of any one bad idea you had today. Here it refers to a thing, idea. You are my best friends. I don't want to lose any one of you. Here it refers to people, you. I hope the difference is clear now. That's it for today. See you next time.
