each与every的区别

each与every都有“每个”的意思，但二者含义及语法功能不同，主要区别是：1. each既可用作形容词，又可用作代词，在句中可以作定语，主语、宾语、同位语、状语等。

Each studen t has his own dictionary . （形容词，定语）
Each has hi s good point . （代词，主语）
Our head teacher had a ta lk with each of us . （代词，宾语）
The students each h ave a desk . （代词，同位语）
The children can have a b ag each . （副词，状语）
2. each与every都可用作形容词，在句中作定语，但each更强调个人或个别，every更强调全体或全部。

比较：
I know each number of your family .
I know every number of your f amily .
3. each指两个或两个以上的人或事物中的“每个”；every是指许多人或事物的“全体”，与all的意思相近
这条街上每边都有很多商店。

〔误〕There are ma ny shops on every side of the street .
〔正〕There a re many shops on each side of the street .
我给她父母每人一件礼物。

〔误〕I gave a present to every one of her par ents .
〔正〕I gave a present to each of her parents .
4. 指上下文提到过的确定数目中的“每一个”时，要用each；如果上下文没有提及时，不能用each，要用everyone等。

试译：
我认为这三个答案个个都正确。

〔误〕I think ever y answer of the three is right .
〔正〕I think each of the three answers is right .
我看见人人都忙着工作。

〔误〕I saw each was bu sy with his work .
〔正〕I saw everyone was busy with his work .
这两个词都表示“每一个”的意思。

但“every"表示数目不确定的许多人或物中间的每一个，它的“总和”意义很重。

each则指一定数目中的每一个，“个别”意义很重。

比如：
You must correct every error before you hand in the examination again.(你必须再交作
业前改正所有的错误）
The teacher give us a list of five books for home reading, each is to be finished in two weeks.
(教师给我们开了五本书作为家庭读物，每一本都要在两星期内完成）
再比较两个句子：
1。

every one of us knows that even the most carefully-devised pans are not
error-proof.(我们每个人都知道即使是制定最周密的计划也不能完全防止错误）2。

each of us has his weakness(我们每人有每人的缺点）
从以上两句可以看出：
特点一：every 重点在“大家一致“，而each 重点在“各有不同”。

特点二：every 是形容词，只有在与名词连接或构成复合词时，才可以做主语或宾语。

each 可以做代词，直接做主语或宾语。

every one of us中的us 是泛指，each of us 中的us是比较肯定。

特点三：
every和each后面的动词必须是单数，
特点四：
在every 和each 后面绝对不可以加all来表示汉语的“都”
each,every这两个词都有“每个”的意义。

each强调各别、各个，而every 强调全部、都
He can get up for about two hours each day.
他每天可以起床活动大约两个小时。

He gave each boy an apple.
他给每个孩子一个苹果。

Nearly everybody enters for 'The Nicest Garden Competition' each year, but Joe wins everytime.
几乎每年每人都报名参加“最佳花园赛”，但每次都是乔获胜。

From each according to his ability, to each according to his work.
各尽所能，按劳分配。

The sun shines every day.
每天都是阳光灿烂。
