Etymologies (1)

Toggle Century etymologies Century Dictionary (1)

  1. from Middle English everi-hwar, eaver ihwer, from ever, evere, etc. (Anglo-Saxon æ¯fre), ever, a generalizing adverb, + ihwar, ihwer, from Anglo-Saxon gehwæ¯r, everywhere, on every side, from ge-, an indefinite generalizing prefix, + hwæ¯r, where. Thus, while everywhere is regarded as composed of every + where, it is historically made up of ever + y-where, the y- being a prefix, as in y-clept, y-wis, etc. (see i-), and quite different from the -y in every. Cf. anywhere, somewhere, nowhere.
