Just like in English, ''alles'' (everything) and ''iedereen'' (everyone) are independent pronouns: They do not precede another noun. 

The Dutch do not make a distinction between 'everyone' and 'anyone', they always say ''iedereen''. The same goes for 'everything' and 'anything', for which the Dutch use the word ''alles''.

!!! Iedereen (everyone) 

Although it refers to a group of people, ''iedereen'' is regarded as a singular pronoun. The English pronouns 'everybody' and 'everyone' are also singular but in colloquial English we do come across sentences like "''Everyone'' has to brush ''their'' teeth" (instead of the correct form: ''his'' teeth). In Dutch, even colloquial Dutch, you will never hear this.

(:cell class='i':)He gets along with '''everyone'''.
(:cellnr class='gray':)Heb je '''iedereen''' verwittigd?
(:cell class='i':)Dit you notify '''everyone'''?
(:tableend:)

====
!!! Alles (everything) 

Just like ''iedereen, alles'' is a singular pronoun. 
====

(:table width="90%" align="center" cellspacing="0" class="gray":)
(:cellnr width="50%" class="gray":)'''Alles''' is veranderd. 
(:cell class="i":)'''Everything''' has changed.
(:cellnr class="gray":)Ik heb '''alles''' al gedaan. 
(:cell class="i":)I have done '''everything''' already.
(:tableend:)

====
!!! Pronominal adverb ''alles - overal''

If you already went through the [[Pronouns.ad02 | pronominal adverbs]], you  know that we sometimes change the pronoun into an adverb when it is preceded by a preposition. We can (but in this case, do not have to) do the same with ''alles.'' For example, instead of ''voor alles'' ('for everything'), we can say ''overal voor'' ('everywhere for'). Note that we write ''overal'' and ''voor'' as two separate words (unlike most other [[Pronouns.ad02 | pronominal adverbs]]).
