Tradução & Definição
(Alice doesn't live here) anymore: (Alice não mora) mais aqui
As one word, anymore is used in negative and interrogative constructions to describe a lack of something OR to express a current state (similar to the term "nowadays"):
Jane doesn't work here anymore. Jane não trabalha mais aqui.
They don't make cars like this anymore. Eles não fazem mais carros assim.
(Are there) any more (paper clips?): Ainda (há algum clipe)?
In interrogative constructions, any more is used when we are unsure of the possible response. In negative constructions, it is used to describe a lack or absence of something:
Do you have any more ideas? Você tem alguma outra ideia?
I don't have any more ideas. Não tenho mais nenhuma ideia.
(I have) no more (time): (Não tenho) mais (tempo)
No more is used in affirmative constructions to describe a lack or absence of something. Rarely, "no more" is used in affirmative constructions to describe the end of an action:
I have no more patience for that fox. Não tenho mais paciência com essa raposa.
I will tolerate your behaviour no more. (archaic) Não tolerarei mais seu comportamento.
