What does EVERY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Used before a singular noun to refer to each individual member of a group, without leaving any out.
Every asks a listener to picture each single member of a group in turn rather than the group as one block, so every student passed means each student individually passed, not simply that the class as a whole did well. The word also marks how often something happens, as in every morning or every third day, spacing out repeated events at a fixed interval. For emphasis, every can stretch to mean practically all possible cases, as when someone says they tried every trick without literally listing each one. Despite its flexibility, every always keeps this core idea of covering each case completely, with nothing left out.
How EVERY is used
Extremely common in everyday speech and writing, used constantly before singular nouns to mean each one without exception.
- Every window in the house was left open.
