使用する際の注意点

• Spelled every one when referring separately to every person or thing in a specified group: There were three patients and she helped every one [of them]. In such cases it cannot be replaced with everybody without changing the sense.
• Everyone takes a singular verb: Is everyone here?; Everyone has heard of it. However, similar to what occurs with collective or group nouns like crowd or team, sometimes a plural pronoun refers back to everyone which is also reflected in verb conjugations: Everyone was laughing at first, but then they all stopped. / Everyone has a smart phone nowadays, don't they?
• In colloquial speech it is common to say everyone is not X instead of not everyone is X (both of which may potentially have the intended meaning that most people are not X). The same is true of other universal qualifiers such as everybody, everything, all.

使用する際の注意点

• In contemporary standard spelling, everyone is used when it can be replaced with everybody, while every one is used when it can be replaced with each one. Most importantly, this means that everyone is only used of persons. The two-word form every one should still be used of persons when it refers separately to the members of a group specified in the context (as in the second example above), although this distinction is seldom relevant for the sense.
