14 -anyone o any one?-

Nota d'uso
Quando anyone è pronome indefinito con il significato di “chiunque, qualcuno”, si scrive come una sola parola: Anyone could tell you the answer, chiunque potrebbe dirti la risposta; Do you know anyone else who could help? conosci qualcun altro che potrebbe aiutare? Altrimenti, si scrive con due parole separate: Any one of us could have scored a high mark, ognuno di noi avrebbe potuto segnare un punteggio alto; A maximum of six people are allowed in this lift at any one time, un massimo di sei persone alla volta possono entrare in questo ascensore.
