Dictionary of Problem Words and Expressions:

everybody & everyone

These words are interchangeable in their meaning of “every person,” although everyone is considered by some speakers as more refined 

and euphonious than everybody.

Both pronouns

when used as subjects, require singular verbs

accompanying pronouns should also be singular

“Everyone has (not have) an obligation to cast his (not their) vote.”

Spelled as one word, everyone means “everybody.”

Every one (two words) refers to each person of a group 

and is followed byof:

“Every one of them is loafing on the job.”

USAGE NOTE FOR EVERYONE

See each.

USAGE NOTE FOR EACH

The adjective each is always followed by a singular noun

each person; 

each book. 

When the adjective follows a plural subject

the verb agrees with the subject

They each dress in different styles. 

The houses each have central heating. 

 

When the pronoun each comes immediately before the verb

it always takes a singular verb

Each comes (not come ) from a different country. 

 

When the pronoun is followed by an of phrase

containing a plural noun or pronoun

there is a tendency for the verb to be plural: 

Each of the candidates has (or have spoken on the issue. 

 

Some usage guides maintain that only the singular verb is correct

but plural verbs occur frequently even in edited writing.

 

It is also sometimes said that 

the pronoun each must always be referred to by a singular pronoun, 

but again actual usage does not regularly observe this stricture

Each member of our garden club had their own special interests. 

In the most formal speech and writing

singular verbs and pronouns occur more frequently than plural

Each member … had his own special interests. 

 

The use of plural forms, especially plural pronouns

has been increasing in the United States, partially because 

of the desire to avoid using he or his to refer to a female.


Anyone, anybody, everyone, everybody, 

no one, someone, and somebody 

follow the same general patterns of pronoun agreement as each. 

See also they.

 

Collins English Dictionary: 

Everyone (ˈɛvrɪˌwʌn; -wən)

pron

every person; everybody

Usage: 

Everyone and everybody are interchangeable

as are no one and nobody, and someone and somebody. 

 

Care should be taken to distinguish 

between everyone as a single word 

and every one as two words

the latter form correctly being used 

to refer to each individual person 

or thing in a particular group

          every one of them is wrong

GRAMMAR NOTES FOR ELSE

The possessive forms of somebody else, everybody else, etc.,

the forms somebody's else, everybody's else
