Day 142: Everybody vs. Every body

Everybody and everyone refer to the entire group of people at once, as one collective group. For example,

“Everybody has a good time at the movies. Everyone eats popcorn and drinks lemonade.”

On the other hand, “every one” and “every body” refer to the frequency of individuals or individual things.

Every one is very uncommon and refers only to frequency of some thing. For example, you can ask, “How often should I send an invoice? Every two weeks? Every three?” You might receive the answer, “No, every one,” meaning a frequency of every one-week period.

Every body means each body. For example, if you are examining a crime scene and ask, “How many bodies have you found?” you might receive the answer, “Every body.”
