anywheres
In any place
Anywheres is a dialectal or informal variant of anywhere, used in some American regional speech patterns, particularly in rural and working-class contexts.
It functions identically to anywhere, indicating any location or place without specifying which one.
I can't find my keys anywheres.
Standard usage guides consider it nonstandard, though it persists in casual speech and dialogue meant to convey regional flavor.
