2) (emphatic)every bit as much as — proprio tanto quanto, esattamente quanto
every day — ogni giorno, tutti i giorni
every other day — ogni due giorni, un giorno sì e uno no
every other Sunday — ogni due domeniche, una domenica sì e una no, una domenica su due

Note:Every is usually used in front of a singular countable noun: every student = ogni studente. When every precedes a plural countable noun, it means that something happens at regular periods of time, after a certain distance, etc.: he smokes a cigarette every two hours = fuma una sigaretta ogni due ore; you'll have to fill up with petrol every 450 miles = dovrai fare il pieno di benzina ogni 450 miglia. - Every is most frequently translated by tutti / tutte + plural noun: every day = tutti i giorni. When every is emphasized to mean every single, it can also be translated by ogni o ciascuno.
