我们汉语中说“每一。。。" "都” “一个也没有”时是没有数的区别的,也就是说无论谈论的数是多少,这几个汉字都是一样的。但是英语不同,表达这几个意思的单词有数的区别,谈论二者和三个以上的东西时所用的词是不一样的,利用下图把这几个词一次性记住就不会困惑了。下图中“(=2)”表示谈论的事物为2者时,“>=-3”表示谈论的事物为三者或三者以上时。
如果上图还没看明白,再看下面的文字说明:
当我们谈论的事物为两者中的“每一。。。”时用either。
当我们谈论的事物为三者或以上的“每一。。。”时用every。
当我们谈论两者“都”时用both。
当我们谈论三者或以上“都”时用all。
当我们谈论的事物为两者中“一个也没有”时用neither(=no+either)。
当我们谈论的事物为三者或以上“一个也没有”时用none(=no +one)。
另外,二者以上的都可以用each,也就是说each包含了either和every的用法。
