Answer 1

What are the diffrences between "all" and "every".
eg.
1. every high school
2. all high schools

What is the difference between next sentences

1. every elementary school in Japan has school lunch.
2. all elementary school in Japan have school lunch.

Both sentences should begin with a capital letter. In these two sentences, every is singular. It refers to the complete list of schools.
All is plural, therefore it would be written correctly like this:
All elementary schools in Japan have school lunch.

The meaning of the two sentences is about the same--that without exception, Japanese elementary schools serve lunch.

This pair:
1. every elementary school in Japan has school lunch.
2. all elementary school in Japan have school lunch.

In this pair, the same rules are true. Every is singular and All is plural. However the second sentence is written incorrectly. Both sentences should begin with a capital letter. The second sentence should be:
All elementary schools in Japan have school lunch.
The meaning of these two sentences is about the same--that without exception, Japanese elementary schools serve lunch.

1. every elementary school in Japan has school lunch.
2. all elementary schools in Japan have school lunch.

These would be correct if you had capitalized the sentences. Again, they mean the same thing. Every is singular, all is plural.

Every requires a singular verb.
All (in this case) takes a plural verb.

(All can be a collective noun and refer to one complete entity, so sometimes it takes a singular verb. You have to look carefully at the meaning. These are also correct:
All is well.
All of it is finished. (In this the prepositional phrase "of it" limits the meaning to a singular.)
All of them are finished. (In this, the prepositional phrase "of them" defines All as a collective group, therefore it is collective and plural.)

I hope this helps. I am attaching some sites that might help you with understanding the differences between every (singular) and all (usually collective plural)

These are considered "distributives."
EACH, EVERY, EITHER, NEITHER
These distributive words are normally used with singular nouns, and are placed before the noun.

Answer 3

You would say "all high schools" if you were speaking of them collectively. Eg. All high schools release their students at 3:45 pm. You would say "every high school" if you wanted to still speak of them collectively, but with more emphasis on the fact that there are individual schools. Eg. Every high school in this county will need metal detectors installed at the front doors.

I

Answer 4

In your example, "every" also means or is interchangeable with "each", so it's also kind of "singular". There also is no plural "s" attached to the word "school". You can probably refer to something different in "each/every" school but not in "all" schools.
You could say, "Each/every school IS different" but not "All schools IS different". I think it's just a slight distinction.
That's my feeling but I'm not a teacher so I COULD be wrong!
