Everyone vs. Every One The usage of these words (one is a word, the other is a compound word) in day to day expressions have often remain confusing for some Speakers/learners of the Second langauge (L2). It is suffice to say that the pronoun 'everyone' may be replaced by everybody in some cases. It is used to refer to all the people in a group thereby addressed as a whole. However, when written as two words, "every + one = every one" emphasizes each individual who makes up a group, and it means each person. As used for example, a) Every one of you will attend the dinner (every one is followed by 'of') b) It is left to everyone to make Nigeria a better place Happy Sunday I KNOW WHY YOUR MOTHER CRIES (Collection of Poems) drops this month on Okadabooks & Amazon. The book is forwarded by notable Nigerian poet cum literary giant; Professsor Hope Eghagha Send me a DM to pre-order your copy & share this post if you love my craft.
