anybody know about this vs any body knows about this

Both phrases have issues. The first phrase, 'anybody know about this,' is incorrect because 'know' should be 'knows' to agree with the subject 'anybody.' The second phrase, 'any body knows about this,' is also incorrect because 'any body' should be written as 'anybody' as one word.

anybody know about this

This phrase is incorrect. 'Know' should be 'knows' to match the subject 'anybody.'

The correct form should be 'anybody knows about this.' 'Anybody' is a singular pronoun, so it requires the singular form of the verb 'knows.'

any body knows about this
