The ” Anyways ” at the beginning of a sentence usually indicates

that the speaker has resumed a narrative thread: “Anyways, I told Matilda that guy was a lazy bum before she ever married him. I like, I can’t speak to this guy anymore, but I know how rumbling he wurst if I hit the floor thrown”. ” ” The word also occurs at the end of phrases and sentences, meaning “in any case” “He wasn’t all that good-looking anyways.” A slightly less rustic quality can be imparted to these sentences by substituting the more formal anyway. Which is a good idea in English? Is there any way to prevent the impending disaster? ”

By colloquial means, you may prefer using “anyways, ” by formal means.

Any has to be followed by a singular noun. Whats is too “grammatically wrong”? Is dismissing common construct considered pedantry?
