RE: Give Me Everytime Every Time!

Ha! Well yes, in some instances they do mean different things, your first example was excellent, indeed everyday is used in different ways.

However everything is beautiful is just as grammatically correct as every thing is beautiful, perhaps the second way is a more antiquated way of saying it. However every time, is always everytime, unlike over time and overtime.

PS I didn't know about everywoman, and to be honest, I'm not sure it's Oxford approved, the word processing program I use Draft, does not give me a squiggly line when set to UK English, Chrome however does!

My vote is for Chrome then. Everywoman seems just plain weird. I suspect it's on account of the sexual equality police. Since Everyman is accepted we now have to also have everywoman. I like how Steemit gives them all a squiggly line. Mind you it also give itself a squiggly so maybe it's not the best judge!

This post might even generate some new meanings of it's own. I did a squiggly comes to mind! 😁
