How to use

The adverb 'everywhere' is commonly used in informal and formal writing to indicate a location or situation that is universal or all-encompassing. It is often used in conjunction with verbs such as 'be', 'exist', or 'occur'. However, learners of English may mistakenly use 'everywhere' as an adverb to modify verbs that do not indicate location, such as 'think' or 'feel'. For example, 'I think everywhere' is incorrect and should be replaced with 'I think about everything' or 'I think in every direction'.
