Dear teachers:

I always confused everyday with every day. Would you please tell me how to use the two words? Thanks for your help.



Best wishes,

Julia

Everyday is an adjective. Traffic accidents are an everyday occurrence in Los Angeles.

Every day is an adverbial phrase, hence an adverb. Traffic accidents occur every day in Los Angeles.
