Этимология (Английский)

Родственно английский: ever

In summary

From Middle High German niemer, from Old High German niomēr, itself usually derived from ni- (“not”) + iomēr (“ever”), thus the same construct as English ever and never. Pfeifer instead derives it from Old High German nio (“never”) + iomēr (modern German nie + immer). The modern (chiefly southern) interpretation, finally, makes it equivalent to a contraction of ni(ch)t mehr (“no more”) or nie mehr (“never more”). All of these words are ultimately interrelated, but not identical.
