no longer; not any longer
Used with a negative verb to say that something that was true or happened before does not happen now.
Vzorec užití:
not [verb] anymore
Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse 'anymore' (time) with 'any more' (quantity). Use 'anymore' to talk about time, usually with a negative: 'I don't drive anymore.' Use 'any more' for amounts: 'I don't want any more coffee.' Another mistake is putting 'anymore' in positive sentences in standard English, where 'now' or 'these days' is more natural: say 'I live here now,' not 'I live here anymore,' in most contexts.
Synonyma
any longer (Almost the same meaning; slightly more formal or neutral in writing, often placed at the end of a clause like 'I don't live there any longer.')
|
no longer (Very close in meaning but usually placed before the verb or after the subject, as in 'I no longer live there.')
Antonyma
still ('Still' shows that an action or state continues up to now, which is the opposite of stopping as in 'not anymore.')

nowadays; these days (informal)
(Informal, mainly in American English) Used in positive sentences to mean ‘now’ or ‘these days.’
Vzorec užití:
[clause], anymore
Častá chyba:
This use of 'anymore' in positive sentences is regional and informal, especially in North American English, and may sound incorrect or strange in other varieties. For safe, standard English, learners should use 'nowadays' or 'these days' instead of positive 'anymore.'
Synonyma
nowadays (Standard and widely used in all varieties of English; more natural than positive 'anymore' in most formal or international contexts.)
|
these days (Very common informal alternative with the same meaning, natural in all major English varieties.)
Antonyma
back then (Refers to a past time period, contrasting with 'anymore' meaning 'nowadays.')
|
