   • c. 4 BCE – 65 CE, Seneca the Younger, De brevitate vitae 15:

     Horum te mori nemo coget, omnes docebunt; horum nemo annos tuos conteret, suos tibi contribuet; nullius ex his sermo periculosus erit, nullius amicitia capitalis, nullius sumptuosa obseruatio.

     No one of these will force you to die, but all will teach you how to die; no one of these will wear out your years, but each will add his own years to yours; conversations with no one of these will bring you peril, the friendship of none will endanger your life, the courting of none will tax your purse.

   Quem nemo ferro potuit superare nec auro. ― Whom none could overcome with iron or gold.

   Amīcus omnibus, amīcus nemini. ― A friend to all, a friend to none.

   Vicinam neminem amo magis quam te. ― I love a neighbouring nobody more than you.

   Nemo, nisi sapiens, liber est. ― No one, unless he is wise, is free.

   Nemo ante mortem beatus. ― No one [can be called] happy before his death.

   Nemo non formosus filius matri. ― No one fails to be a beautiful son for his mother.

   Absque sanitate nemo felix. ― Without health, no one [is] happy.

   Nemo sine sapientia beatus est. ― No man without wisdom is happy.

   Nemo cum sarcinis enatat. ― No one swims away with his bundles/belongings.

使用する際の注意点

• Sometimes used adjectivally or appositively with a noun that refers to a person.
• In sentences that already have a negative word, the negative polarity item quisquam (“anyone, anybody”) is used instead of nēmō. It is preferred in Classical Latin to use "nec quisquam" instead of "et nēmō".^[1]

語形変化

Third-declension noun, singular only.

In Classical Latin, the suppletive genitive nūllīus and ablatives nūllō (masculine) and nūllā (feminine) are usually used instead of nēminis and nēmine.

Plural forms (ordered by case as above: nēminēs, nēminum, nēminibus, nēminēs, nēminibus, nēminēs) also exist, but are rare, because these forms can only be translated accurately as 'no people', which is often rendered by other methods.
