Common Mispronunciations of Everyone

Not EV-ree-WUHN

A light secondary lift is all the last beat takes, so the word never falls apart into two separate ones.

Not E-ver-ee-wuhn

That second e is skipped, which brings the word down to three beats rather than four.

Tip: Everyone as one word means every person, and every one as two picks out each member of a set, as in every one of the plates was broken.
