WEBVTT 00:00.090 --> 00:03.400 Hello welcome to this tutorial. 00:03.480 --> 00:10.850 Today we are going to talk about distributes each and every. 00:10.920 --> 00:20.030 Let's get started distributive determiner is or simply distribute it's referred to a group of people 00:20.330 --> 00:25.600 or things and to individual members of the group. 00:25.670 --> 00:34.460 Note that they show different ways of looking at the individual within a group and they express how 00:34.460 --> 00:39.900 something is distributed shared or divided. 00:39.940 --> 00:43.460 Have a look at the example over here. 00:43.460 --> 00:46.850 Each person is unique. 00:46.850 --> 00:53.730 Every person is unique. 00:53.780 --> 01:04.450 Now the distributive each and every are both related to describing the members of a group these distributors 01:04.480 --> 01:12.310 can only be used with countable nouns by being placed before the nouns. 01:12.310 --> 01:19.860 Now in many cases they are interchangeable but there is a subtle difference between them. 01:19.930 --> 01:25.180 Let's have a look at that subtotal difference between each and every 01:29.420 --> 01:29.990 now. 01:29.990 --> 01:39.830 Each is used to describe and highlight an individual member of a group or multiple individuals. 01:39.830 --> 01:50.060 Note that by using each you recognize the item is a part of a group but that it also needs to be pointed 01:50.060 --> 01:57.320 out as a singular item to have a look at the example over here. 01:57.320 --> 02:01.670 Each book on the shell had a unique cover. 02:01.860 --> 02:14.020 The distributive eat refers to the countable noun book which is part of other books on the shelf. 02:14.020 --> 02:24.790 Note that each can be used with plural nouns and pronouns but it must be followed by off as in the example 02:25.060 --> 02:31.090 over here each of the pupils received a Christmas card. 02:31.090 --> 02:34.150 Pupils is a plural noun 02:36.910 --> 02:37.790 also. 02:37.960 --> 02:45.070 Each can be used after the subject or at the end of the sentence. 02:45.100 --> 02:48.520 Let's have a look at the following examples. 02:48.580 --> 02:56.140 My siblings each have their own room after the subject. 02:57.470 --> 03:04.040 My mother gave my sister and I twenty dollars each. 03:04.040 --> 03:12.970 This means that she gave twenty dollars to each of us. 03:12.980 --> 03:22.800 Now let's have a look at the distributive every By contrast every is a way of referring to the group 03:23.310 --> 03:26.760 as a collection of individual members. 03:26.760 --> 03:32.290 Note that every can not be used with plural nouns. 03:32.340 --> 03:36.050 Let's have a look at the example over here. 03:37.030 --> 03:41.820 Every boys in my class wanted that computer game. 03:41.830 --> 03:52.390 Now this sentence would be incorrect because boys is plural and we cannot use every with plural nouns 03:53.290 --> 04:02.110 the correct form would be every boy in my class wanted that computer game. 04:02.120 --> 04:11.440 Also remember that every can express different points in a series especially with time expressions. 04:11.490 --> 04:18.250 For example in the sentence we have every morning Phillip goes for a run. 04:18.450 --> 04:28.220 Now in this sentence the distributive every expresses a time expression which is warning and in the 04:28.220 --> 04:39.410 sentence and every time and would forgive him the distributive every expresses the word tying which 04:39.410 --> 04:45.290 tells us about what and does every time in a series.
