使用 each 和 every
each 是将群体视为个体，而 every 则是将群体视为一个个的成员。这些分配词后面只能接可数名词，而且通常是单数名词。在多数情况下，两者都可以互换。
举例
- Each child received a present.
- Every child received a present.
- I gave each plant some water.
- I gave every plant some water.
each 可以接复数名词和复数代词，但中间必须加 of。every 则不能接复数名词。
举例
- Each of the children received a present.
- I gave each of the plants some water.
- He told each of us our jobs.
- I gave each of them a kiss.
every 可以表达连续的事物，尤其常用于表达时间。each 也有这样的用法，但较不常见。
举例
- Every morning John goes jogging.
- This magazine is published every week.
- I have my coffee here every day.
- I go visit my mother each week.
- Each Monday, he buys a kilo of apples.
