MotConstructionSensExemple
every+ nom singuliertous les (ensemble, habitude)I go to the gym every day.
each+ nom singulierchaque (pris un par un)Each pupil has a number.
all+ pluriel ou indénombrabletous les, tout leAll the students are here.
the whole+ nom singuliertout le, entierShe ate the whole cake.
everyone / everything+ verbe singuliertout le monde / toutEveryone is ready.

Le grand piège : all day ou every day ?

I worked all day. ≠ I work every day.
J'ai travaillé toute la journée. ≠ Je travaille tous les jours.

De même : all night (toute la nuit) / every night (toutes les nuits) ; all week / every week.

Each of / all of

Each of the players got a medal. All of them were happy.
Chacun des joueurs a reçu une médaille. Ils étaient tous contents.

Avec un pronom, of est obligatoire : each of us, all of them. On peut aussi dire we all, they all.

Every ne s'emploie jamais seul ni avec of : on dit every one of them ou each of them.

Mise en situation : au club de sport

Coach : Well done, everyone! Each of you gets a medal today.
Bravo à tous ! Chacun de vous reçoit une médaille aujourd'hui.
Tom : Great! We trained every Saturday, all year!
Super ! On s'est entraînés tous les samedis, toute l'année !
Coach : Yes, and the whole team played brilliantly. All your parents are proud of you!
Oui, et toute l'équipe a joué brillamment. Tous vos parents sont fiers de vous !

À retenir

  • every + singulier = tous les (every day) ; each + singulier = chaque (un par un).
  • all + pluriel = tous les ; all day = toute la journée.
  • the whole + singulier = tout entier (the whole cake).
  • everyone / everything + verbe au singulier.
