Growing up in the countryside, my mother would always remind us, 'ne'er cast a clout til May be out,' so we kept our coats ready through May.

The storm howled outside, but she, ne'ertheless, finished her letter by candlelight.

There was ne'ery chance that the old radio would pick up a signal in the storm.
