VOA一分鐘英語：Each 和 every 有什么區(qū)別？

如果想描述一組人或事物中的 “每一個(gè)”，到底該用 “each” 還是 “every”？雖然這兩個(gè)詞的漢語釋義乍一看非常接近，但我們卻不能將它們一概而論。
 
Each and every. Sometimes you can use either, but not always.
In a group, each refers to individual things in turn. Every refers to all the things together. If I have time, I say 'bye' to each of my colleagues. If I don't, I say 'bye' to every colleague at the same time.
If we have two things, we have to use each. If we have three or more, we can use each or every. I have a shoe on each foot. Lions have sharp claws on each or every paw.
Each can be used as a pronoun, while every can't. Look at those cakes! I want a slice of each!
Every object is together. Each object is on its own. Each is for two or more. Every is for three or more. Each can be a pronoun and every can't.
 
用法總結(jié)
“Each” 和 “every” 都有 “每個(gè)” 的意思，它們有時(shí)可以互換使用，但在用法上并不完全一樣?？梢杂涀∷鼈兊囊韵氯齻€(gè)區(qū)別：
