How it's used
Emphasizes the individuality of each person within a group rather than treating the group as a single collective unit. It is frequently paired with the particle 都 to reinforce the sense of universality across all members. It functions primarily as a pronoun referring to people, whereas 每一 or 所有 are more versatile for general nouns.
Examples
Every student went on a trip.

Common mistake
Avoid using it for non-human nouns, as it specifically refers to people. For objects or abstract concepts, use 每一 or 全部 instead.
