Question 1 of 10


In this English Grammar lesson, you will learn the usage of each and every. They are expressions in the singular and are always followed by a singular verb.

Using ‘Each’:

We use “each” in front of the singular form of a count noun to emphasize individuality. “Each” indicates two or more people or things (more usual for a small number).

Examples:

  • Study each sentence carefully. (individual)
  • Each player played well. (Individual’s performance)
  • Each of the children received gifts.
  • He met each of the team members personally.
  • There are two boys. Each is smiling
  • In a football match, each team has 11 players.
  • He carried a bag in each hand. (always use each for two things)

Using ‘Every’:

Every is used when referring to all the members of a group of three or more (it is more usual for a large number).

Examples:

  • I have read every book in the library. (as there are a lot of books in the library)
  • Every house in the town is painted white. (there are many houses in the town)
  • She plays tennis every Sunday. (how often something happens)
  • I wash my car every month. (frequency)
