Is this sentence correct? #1 (permalink) Fri Jul 01, 2011 18:04 pm   Is this sentence correct?
 

Hi all of you,

- Is it correct to say: 'I don't want to have anything to do with her anymore?'
and is 'I won't have anything to do with her' the same as 'I don't want to have anything to do with her'?

Thanks
Alex

Both sentences are correct. "I won't have... " is more emphatic than "I don't want to have...": it expresses intention rather than desire.

If it matters to you, "anymore" as one word is mostly AmE. As a BrE speaker, I would write "any more".
