| 词组 | everytime, every time |
| 释义 | everytime, every time Every and time form a common adverbial phrase that is normally written as two words ("They'll do it every time"; "Every time it rains ..."). There is, however, a persistent tendency to treat this two-word phrase as a single-word adverb, especially when it occurs at the beginning of a clause and is essentially synonymous with whenever: • Everytime I read an Irish story —Irish Statesman, 13 Sept. 1924 • ... and everytime the business failed, we children inherited a new legacy —Charles Jones, quoted in Psychology Today, April 1968 • Everytime a field was cleared of timber —Julian Fish, Early American Life, April 1976 Such usage seems to be growing slowly more common, but the two-word styling is still more widely preferred. As Copperud 1980 notes, no dictionary has yet entered the single word everytime. |
