ne'er [Brit nɛː, Am nɛr] ADV archaic

See also never

never [Brit ˈnɛvə, Am ˈnɛvər] ADV When never is used to modify a verb (she never wears a hat, I've never seen him) it is translated ne…jamais in French; ne comes before the verb, and before the auxiliary in compound tenses, and jamais comes after the verb or auxiliary: elle ne porte jamais de chapeau, je ne l'ai jamais vu.
When never is used without a verb, it is translated by jamais alone: ‘admit it!’—‘never!’ = ‘avoue-le!’—‘jamais’.
