Latin > English (Lewis & Short)
ălĭquis: aliquid; plur. aliqui alius-quis; cf. Engl.
I somebody or other, i.e. some person obscurely definite; v. Donald. Varron. p. 381 sq.] (fem. sing. rare).—Abl. sing. aliqui, Plaut. Aul. prol. 24; id. Most. 1, 3, 18; id. Truc. 5, 30; id. Ep. 3, 1, 11.—Nom. plur. masc. aliques, analog. to ques, from quis, acc. to Charis. 133 P.—Nom. and acc. plur. neutr. always aliqua.—Dat. and abl. plur. aliquibus, Liv. 22, 13; oftener aliquis, id. 26, 15; 26, 49; Plin. 2, 48, 49, § 131.—Alicui, trisyl., Tib. 4, 7, 2), indef. subst. pron., some one, somebody, any one, something, any thing; in the plur., some, any (it is opp. to an object definitely stated, as also to no one, nobody. The synn. quis, aliquis, and quidam designate an object not denoted by name; quis leaves not merely the object, but even its existence, uncertain; hence it is in gen. used in hypoth. and conditional clauses, with si, nisi, num, quando, etc.; aliquis, more emphatic than quis, denotes that an object really exists, but that nothing depends upon its individuality; no matter of what kind it may be, if it is only one, and not none; quidam indicates not merely the existence and individuality of an object, but that it is known as such to the speaker, only that he is not acquainted with, or does not choose to give, its more definite relations; cf. Jahn ad Ov. M. 9, 429, and the works there referred to).
In gen.: nam nos decebat domum Lugere, ubi esset aliquis in lucem editus, Enn. ap. Cic. Tusc. 1, 48, 115 (as a transl. of Eurip. Cresph. Fragm. ap.

E Frequently, esp. in Cic., with the kindred words aliquando, alicubi, aliquo, etc., for the sake of emphasis or rhetorical fulness, Cic. Planc. 14, 35: asperius locutus est aliquid aliquando, id. ib. 13, 33; id. Sest. 6, 14; id. Mil. 25, 67: non despero fore aliquem aliquando, id. de Or. 1, 21, 95; id. Rep. 1, 9; id. Or. 42, 144; id. Fam. 7, 11 med.: evadat saltem aliquid aliquā, quod conatus sum, Lucil. ap. Non. 293, 1; App. Mag. p. 295, 17 al.—

I In Verg. once with the second person sing.: Exoriare aliquis nostris ex ossibus ultor, Qui face Dardanios ferroque sequare colonos, Verg. A. 4, 625.!*? In the following passages, with the critical authority added, aliquis seems to stand for the adj. aliqui, as nemo sometimes stands with a noun for the adj. nullus: nos quibus est alicunde aliquis objectus labos, Ter. Hec. 3, 1, 6 Fleck.; Et ait idem, ut aliquis metus adjunctus sit ad gratiam, Cic. Div. in Caecil. 7, 24 B. and K.: num igitur aliquis dolor in corpore est? id. Tusc. 1, 34, 82 iid.: ut aliquis nos deus tolleret, id. Am. 23, 87 iid.: sin casus aliquis interpellārit, Matius ap. Cic. Fam. 11, 28, 8 iid.: si deus aliquis vitas repente mutāsset, Tac. Or. 41 Halm: sic est aliquis oratorum campus, id. ib. 39 id.: sive sensus aliquis argutā sententiā effulsit, id. ib. 20 id. A similar use of aliquid for the adj. aliquod was asserted to exist in Plaut. by Lind. ad Cic. Inv. 2, 6, 399, and this is repeated by Klotz, s. v. aliquis, but Lemaire's Index gives only one instance: ni occupo aliquid mihi consilium, Plaut. Men. 5, 2, 94, where Brix now reads aliquod.
II Esp.
A With alius, aliud: some or any other, something else, any thing else: dum aliud aliquid flagitii conficiat, Ter. Phorm. 5, 2, 5: potest fieri, ut alius aliquis Cornelius sit, Cic. Fragm. B.

Brut. 44: aut ipse occurrebat aut aliquos mittebat, Liv. 34, 38: cum seditionem sedare vellem, cum frumentum imperarem ..., cum aliquid denique rei publicae causā gererem, Cic. Verr. 1, 27, 20: commentabar declamitans saepe cum M. Pisone et cum Q. Pompeio aut cum aliquo cotidie id. Brut. 90, 310; Vell. 1, 17; Tac.

1 Esse aliquem or aliquid, to be somebody or something, i. e to be of some worth, value, or note, to be esteemed: atque fac, ut me velis esse aliquem, Cic. Att. 3, 15 fin.: aude aliquid brevibus Gyaris dignum, si vis esse aliquis, Juv. 1, 73: an quidquam stultius quam quos singulos contemnas, eos esse aliquid putare universos? Cic.

Herm. ad Vig. 731; 755; so, assequi aliquid, to effect something considerable: Etenim si nunc aliquid assequi se putant, qui ostium Ponti viderunt, Cic. Tusc. 1, 20, 45.—
3 In colloquial lang.: fiet aliquid, something important or great, will, may come to pass or happen: Ch. Invenietur, exquiretur, aliquid fiet. Eu. Enicas. Jam istuc aliquid fiet, metuo, Plaut. Merc. 2, 4, 25: mane, aliquid fiet, ne abi, id. Truc. 2, 4, 15; Ter. And. 2, 1, 14.—
D Ad aliquid esse, in gram. lang., to refer or relate to something else, e. g. pater, filius, frater, etc. (v. ad): idem cum interrogantur, cur aper apri et pater patris faciat, il lud nomen positum, hoc ad aliquid esse contendunt, Quint. 1, 6, 13 Halm.—
E Atque aliquis, poet. in imitation of ᾧδε δέ τις, and thus some one (Hom. II. 7, 178; 7, 201 al.): Atque aliquis, magno quaerens exempla timori, Non alios, inquit, motus, etc., Luc. 2, 67 Web.; Stat. Th. 1, 171; Claud. Eutr. 1, 350.—
F It is sometimes omitted before qui, esp. in the phrase est qui, sunt qui: praemittebatque de stipulatoribus suis, qui perscrutarentur, etc., Cic. Off. 2, 7, 25: sunt quibus in satirā videar nimis acer, Hor. S. 2, 1, 1: sunt qui adiciant his evidentiam, quae, etc., Quint. 4, 2, § 63 (cf. on the contr. § 69: verum in his quoque confessionibus est aliquid. quod ex invidiā detrahi possit).—
Aliquid, like nihil (q. v. I. γ), is used of persons: Hinc ad Antonium nemo, illinc ad Caesarem cotidie aliquid transfugiebat, Vell. 2, 84, 2 (cf. in Gr. τῶν δ ἄλλων οὔ πέρ τι ... οὔτε θεῶν οὔτ ἀνθρώπων, Hom. H. Ven. 34 sq. Herm.).— Hence the advv.
A ălĭquid (prop. acc. denoting in what respect, with a verb or adj.; so in Gr. τὶ>), somewhat, in something, in some degree, to some extent: illud vereor, ne tibi illum succensere aliquid suspicere, Cic.

Gal. 6, 15: perlucens jam aliquid, incerta tamen lux, Liv. 41, 2: aliquid et spatio fessus, Plin. 5, 9, 10, § 54; cf. Hand, Turs. I. p. 259; Ellendt ad Cic. de Or. 1, 9, 35.—
B ălĭ-quō (from aliquoi, old dat. denoting direction whither; cf.: eo, quo, alio, etc.).
