Ways to tell them apart:
- Every day is a phrase meaning each day separately, emphasizing the frequency or regularity of an action.
- Everyday is an adjective that describes something as common or routine.
- Remember that every day can often be replaced by each day, which is two words just like every day.
- If you can substitute it with daily, use everyday, as both are single words and relate to routine.
- Think of every day as two words that mark a duration or time period (every refers to each instance within day).
