"Sometimes" refers to occasional occurences. "Sometimes, I have nightmares."

"Some time" can refer to an uncertain amount of time, or an uncertain point the future. "This equation will take some time" and "Let's go out to eat some time."

Good question!

'Sometimes' is an adverb modifying a verb, as in 'Sometimes I feel like a motherless child' It just means 'from time to time'. 'Some time' is a noun phrase naming some particular time you are talking about, as in 'Do you have some time on Thursday we could get together?'

* This is a case like 'every day' and 'everyday'. 'Everyday' is an adjective that means common or ordinary, as in 'Spotting a snake on that hill is an everyday occurrence.' 'Everyday' has to have a noun that it modifies, and it does not have that literal meaning. It just means usual -- nothing out of the ordinary. * But if you really mean 'every day' , that means 7 days a week 52 weeks a year. 'Every day' or 'every month' or 'every second' all refer literally to every time.
