‘each’和‘every’到底有何差別?到底怎麼使用?講師Rachna於Let’s Talk網站,提供了‘each’和‘every’的使用方式和範例。
首先,它們都必須和單數動詞一起使用。
Each
用在單數的可數名詞,以強調個別性。
範例:
1.Study each sentence carefully.
2.Each player played well.
3.Each of the children received gifts.
4.He met each of the team members personally.
5.There are two boys. Each is smiling.
6.In a football match, each team has 11 players.
7.He carried a bag in each hand.
Every
用來指一個群體的全部成員,這個群體有三個以上的成員,較常用來指更多成員的群體。
範例:
1.I have read every book in the library.
2.Every house in the town is painted white.
(城鎮裡有很多房子)
3.She plays tennis every Sunday.
(在此用來強調頻率)
4.I wash my car every month.
5.The manager wants to speak to every employee in the office.
