Every day or everyday?
Example:
'I have a shower every day.'
'I have a shower every single day' makes sense, so split into 2 words.
'Showering is an everyday habit.'
'Showering is an every single day habit' doesn't make sense, so it's just 1 word.

Every day is an adverb. In this case you are not using it to describe something but to say that "Every day you do...." instead of "I've got the everyday chores to do."

I like this explaination. It's simple and easy to remember. I'm adding it to my notes.Plantsandcrabs wrote: ↑24 Jun 2018, 17:35 Everyday is the adjective, meaning you use it to describe something. You use everyday to say something happens daily.
