Grammar Rules · All, every, each
All, every, each.
"Every" and "each" take a singular noun and a singular verb: "every employee gets a badge". "All" takes a plural or uncountable noun ("all employees"), though with a singular time word it means the whole of it: "all day". For repeated time, use "every": "every day", "every two weeks".
