Hmm.. io facerea tres observationes hic:

Primo, "quicunque" traduce "whoever" (plus tosto que '-ever').

Secundo, "whoever" e "anyone" en alcun contextos es intercambiabile. Pro
exemplo: "I'll give the book to whoever wants it" e "I"ll give the book to
anyone who wants it."

Tertio, "someone" e "anyone" saepe ha sensos distincte. Pro exemplo, "I'll
give the book to someone who wants it" es un cosa differente al duo casos in
supra. Solo un persona recipera le libro in iste caso. In le altere duo
casos, plure personas poterea reciper lo.

cordialmente
Edo
