Welcome to the site, Lee!!!
It is a matter of great to have you as this forummember!

To your wonder, I think:
Each is an adverb used to describe the specific things, while Every is used to say something in general!!

For example, we can say, each of you, but can not say every of you. We can say every people, but can't say each people! To see more, please check it out in the dictionary!!

I'm rushing!!

I agree with Kimlong's explanation.

I'd like to add more information to it. 
- each + singular noun: Ex: each student, each member...
- every + person: Ex: every person, every girl....

Of course, we can say "each of you", but not "every of you", so we say "every one of you".


Welcome more questions from you.

Hi Lee,

Yes, "each time" and "every time" convey the same meaning. But if you take a closer look at them, "each time" emphasizes an individual part whereas "every time" stresses the whole part.  Grin

Hi Lee!! Nice to see you again!!

To the real world, the word any and some have the same meaning. Yet, in case we talk about the difference between the two, we can say, any is used in negative and question sentence, while some is used in affermative.

Hey Lee, I'm sorry for the last posting that I missed seeing your wonder of the word "point over view". This phrase is the same or similar to the words/phrase like: point of view, viewpoint, view, vision, notion, idea,...

Ex:In my overview/point of view/view/notion..., love during studying is not really such bad thing!

+Much and many have the same meaning, yet, what the different is that the two used with different form of nouns. I mean:

-Many+plural countable noun/count noun
Ex: How many friends do you have?

-Much us with uncountable noun/noncount noun/mass noun
Ex: How much money do you have?

Hope it's fit your wonder!!

"Some" is used in positive sentences while "any" is used in negative sentences and questions (in most cases).

I have some money.
Do you have any money?
I don't have any money.

However, in some other causes, "some" can be used in a question to ask for a positive response.
Ex: Do you have some money? (This person is asking for a positive answer, so "some" is used in this question.)

And "any" can be used in a positive sentence but for a different use. It's used to show "an unspecific thing".
Ex: I will do any job.
     I will go to any place to follow you. Smiley

Just some ideas.

Hi Lee, I am so so on the ground that I have to conduct my final exam too. We all miss your question very much. Nice to see you again!

Shan't is the abbreviation of the phrase shall not. Most time it is used in offering and polite way in speaking.
