✓ Every person has the right to live without fear of crime.
✗ You can't blame the parents for every mistakes of their children.

▪   every + number + plural noun

If something happens each day, you say that it happens every day:

Don't confuse every one (two words) and everyone (one word):
✗ It is useful for every one to watch the news.

Every one means ‘each one':

Every one is often followed by of:
It will require the support of every one of you.
Most of the pronouns that start with every are written as one word: everyone, everything, everybody, everywhere. The exception is every time, which is always written as two words:
✗ Having a child changes every thing in a couple's life.
✓ Having a child changes everything in a couple's life.
✗ Everytime I see the prisoners, it reminds me of animals kept in captivity.
