SOMETHING
Opposed to “nothing ” aliquid (usually with a genitive of the substantive joined with it; e.g. aliquid nummulorum; after the particles si ne quo ut num we find simply quid unless there be a particular emphasis; Vid: Kühner Cic. Tusc. 1 20 45; Hermann. Viger p. 731): paullum aliquid (some little thing a trifie): nonnihil (a pretty good deal also followed by a genitive): quidquam (in negative propositions): quidam quaedam quoddam (certain which one cannot or may not mention; e.g. singularis est quaedam natura atque vis animi): numquid: ecquid (in questions anything). A something nescio quid: to reckon one as something aliquem magni facere: that is something but far from being all est istuc quidem aliquid sed nequaquam in isto sunt omnia: to think something of one’s self putare se esse aliquid: he seems to be something aliquid esse videtur.
Opposed to “not ” = somewhat in some measure or degree paullum (with comparatives paullo): nonnihil: aliquid (e.g. nonnihil me consolatur cum recordor). ☞ Aliquantum aliquanto always mean “in a considerable degree. “Sometimes this is implied in a comparative adjective; e.g. soror meliuscula est “is something belter. “
