AI Summary
No one, none, nothing — a negative pronoun meaning "not even one," used of both persons and things 1234. It can stand with a noun ("no man," "nothing"), stand alone, or take a genitive naming the group it excludes ("none of them") 1. It is formed from not plus one, on the same pattern as the related word mēdeis 13. In one common construction it combines with another negative simply to reinforce the denial, giving an emphatic "none at all" 1. Alongside the standard form, Hellenistic Greek also used variant spellings (outheis, outhen) 1.
The neuter form is also used adverbially to mean not at all, in no respect 1.
