Every, Each, Any, No, Nobody

What are we learning today?

You will use every, each, any, no and nobody correctly in simple sentences.

Explanation

• Every means all, with no exception: every distance.
• Each means one by one: Each player has a number.
• Use any in questions and negatives: Did she win any medals?
• No and nobody have a negative meaning: There is no pool. Nobody knows.
• After every, each, everyone and nobody, the verb is singular.

Examples

1. Every team has a captain.
2. Did she win any medals?
3. Nobody knows the answer.

Remember!

• Say every player has, not every player have.
• Do not use two negatives in one sentence.
