“ever” in Latin

Always, semper (opposed to numquam): usque (always, within a definite limit: semper represents time as a space; usque as a continuous line: semper = omni tempore: usque = nullo tempore intermisso; continenter): perpetuo (of uninterrupted continuance to the end of a space of time).

With superlatives, ever is translated by quisque :” the best things are ever the rarest,” optimum quidque rarissimum est: or thus; the best men are ever the last to suspect, ut quisque est vir optimus, ita difficillime suspicatur, etc. (with accusative and infinitive): or by comparative, the happiest time ever seems the shortest, tanto brevius tempus, quo felicius est.

At any time, umquam (after negatives, in questions of appeal, that are virtually negative; after quam in a comparative clause; after vix): quando (after num, ne, si): aliquando ( “at some time,” of wider extent than quodam tempore, and not peculiar to dubitative and interrogative forms like umquam: it may, however, stand in interrogations, quis civis meliorum partium aliquando? but here it does not mean “who was ever,” but “who was ever of better political principles than he was once?” It, however, sometimes stands like umquam, in the second member of a comparative sentence, magis opportuna opera nonnumquam, quam aliquando fideli: it may also stand with ullus: quaerere - ea num vel e Philone vel ex ullo Academico audivisset aliquando, Cic., Acad., 4, 4, 11): ecquando (in indignant questions, to express emotion, etc., ecquando te rationem factorum tuorum redditurum putasti? ecquando tu ... vidisti? ecquando ... isto fructu ... quisquam caruit?). If ever, si quando; si quando umquam (Liv. 10, 14); si aliquando; si umquam (implying a doubt that there ever was): if haply ever, si forte aliquando: whether - ever, num - aliquando, num - umquam: whether ... ever, if not, or unless, ecquando (or ecquandone)... nisi or si non (Cic., Agrar., 2, 7, 17, De Fin., 5, 62, 63). Shall I ever, if I now, etc., ecquando ... si nunc? (Liv., 5, 44, 2).

Forever, [Vid: ETERNALLY].

As implying unlimited magnitude; ever so, quantumvis: quamvis (e.g., quantumvis magnus, quamvis magnus); or, after some pronominal adjectives and adverbs by the appended ... -cumque (e.g., ever so great, quantuscumque; ever so small, quantuluscumque. So ubicumque, etc.). [Obs. The proper English idiom in such phrases as “to ask never so much,” “to charm never so wisely,” etc., is neglected by many modern writers, who use “ever” from ignorance. Vid: Webster’s Dict.] With ever [never] so great an army, quamvis magno exercitu.

At all :”not - ever the happier,” etc. [Vid: “at ALL.”]

As an intensive word after as [e.g., as soon as I can]. Vid: POSSIBLY.
