etymology
  • Every body is two words, everybody is one word.
  • Every body refers to each physical body separately, focusing on individual physical entities.
  • Everybody refers to all people collectively, as a group.
  • The space in every body separates the detailed focus that each body gets, as if addressing them individually.
  • In contrast, everybody without a space encompasses a group as a whole.
