Every, each, whole, both, either and neither]*

Two classes ago, with Laia, we were doing grammar about every (cada/general), each (cada/determinat), whole (sencer), both (ambdós), either (qualsevol) and neither (cap,tampoc) because we think that it's a little bit difficult when we have to put neither, and we decided to learn about this.

After do the exercices, our idea of this adverbs changed, it was easier.

Every and each

Every means three or more usuallaly large number.

Every person means 'all the people' like 'everyone'.

Each person means all the people seen as individuals, one by one.

Each is more usual with smaller groups and can mean only two.

Whole

we use whole before a singular noun. It means 'all' or 'complete'

Both, either and neither
We use both, either and neither for two things.
Both means 'the one and the other' we can use it in the following structures.

Either means 'the one or the other' and neither menas 'not the one or the other'

We can use both, either and neither on their own.
