Is the word everywhere a preposition - Word и Excel - помощь в работе с программами

Is the word everywhere a preposition?

Everywhere is an adverb of place, and adverbs cannot be object of prepositions, as it is in your sentence: in everywhere.

Which type of pronoun is everywhere?

Indefinite pronouns

	Person	Place
All	everyone everybody	everywhere
Part (positive)	someone somebody	somewhere
Part (negative)	anyone anybody	anywhere
None	no one nobody	nowhere

What is the plural form of everyone?

Normally, everyone doesn’t have a plural. You treat it as a singular that refers to multiple people. Though Alice and Bob run home, everyone runs home. If you’d rather use something that conjugates as though it is a plural, you could use “they all” or some similar construction.

What type of word is everyone’s?

indefinite pronouns

What is used with everybody is or are?

The right answer is Everyone is. ‘Everyone’ is a single pronoun. We use everyone as a single group, so everyone takes a single verb.

Is it you’ll or Y all?

The only right way to spell the contraction of “you” and “all” is “y’all.” “Ya’ll” is incorrect and a misspelling of the word, so don’t use it. When you think about it, though, “y’all” makes the most sense for how this contraction should be correctly spelled.

How are you all is correct sentence?

“How are all of you?” is correct English. In the USA, it would be considered somewhat formal. “How are you all?” (or in the South “How are y’all?”) is more common and less formal.

What can I say instead of you all?

What is another word for you all?

you	cha
y’all	ye
you gals	you guys
you lot	you-uns
all y’all	all of you

What word can replace yall?

What is another word for y’all?

all of you	all y’all
you guys	you lot
youse	cha
chu	yah
youz	yer

How do you say yall formally?

While “y’all” is actually a contraction for “you all” and is therefore technically correct, it is most commonly used in place of the plural form of “you.” The apostrophe after the “y” represents the lost “ooo” sound from the letters O and U. This explains why the sometimes-seen “ya’ll” spelling is wrong.

Whats another word for all?

What is another word for all?

everybody	everyone
the whole lot	every one
every single one	each and every one
one and all	all and sundry
each one	public

Is the sentence below grammatical?

There are a lot of people, with many wearing tuxedos.

There are some cute teenage girls in the club, with many of them being PhD graduates in topological field theory.

I check through my dictionary and don’t see a definition of with that makes the above sentence legit.

with wɪð preposition preposition: with

accompanied by (another person or thing). «a nice steak with a bottle of red wine» synonyms: accompanied by, in the company of,
escorted by «she’s gone out with her boyfriend»

having or possessing (something). «a flower-sprigged blouse with a white collar» wearing or carrying. «a small man with thick glasses»

indicating the instrument used to perform an action. «cut the fish with a knife» indicating the material used for a purpose. «fill the
bowl with water»

in opposition to. «a row broke out with another man»

indicating the manner or attitude in which a person does something. «the people shouted with pleasure»

indicating responsibility. «leave it with me»

in relation to. «my father will be angry with me» affected by (a particular fact or condition). «he’s in bed with the flu» indicating
the cause of (a condition). «he was trembling with fear» because of
(something) and as it happens. «wisdom comes with age»

employed by. «she’s with the Inland Revenue now» using the services of. «I bank with the TSB»

in the same direction as. «marine mammals generally swim with the current»

indicating separation or removal from something. «to part with one’s dearest possessions»

cf. ODO

So my questions are:

1] can I use «with» this way?

There are partial differential equations on this paper, with many of them having no real solutions.

2] or with an adjective?

There are deuterium atoms in this jar, with many/some of them ionized.

3] or without «of them»?

There are grey goos everywhere, with many/some consuming the haemocoels of tardigrades.

While RHK Webster’s lists the above usage of ‘with’ as a prepositional one, it flags the peculiar usage, calling it a ‘function word’. Though this is rather misleading (all prepositions lie somewhere along the lexical word — function word continuum, their actual location dependent on the actual context they’re used in), RHKW are right to imply that this is a very marginal use even for a preposition. They don’t even attempt to give a definition of this sense of ‘with’ other than an explanation of the use to which it is put in a context:

(17.) (used as a function word to specify [introduce] an additional
circumstance or condition): We climbed the hill, with Jeff following
behind.

It is almost always more idiomatic to drop the ‘with’ and use the remaining absolute construction. The RHKW example is unusual in that the inclusion of the ‘with’ sounds slightly more natural, if anything; this is probably due to the lack of semantic cohesion between the main clause and the absolute clause. Two sentences would (unless previous context linked the clauses more closely) be equally appropriate, with little change even in emphasis: We climbed the hill. Jeff followed behind. Of course, stylistically, this is more staccato.

The manner of with used in your sentences is

2. having or possessing (something). «a flower-sprigged blouse with a white collar» wearing or carrying. «a small man with thick glasses»

You write:

There are a lot of people, with many wearing tuxedos.

I find this construction a little bit odd, but I doubt that it’s ungrammatical. More commonly I’d expect to hear

There are a lot of people, many in tuxedos.
