Everyone in this country is my people.
  

Top answer

Everyone(everybody, somebody, anybody, nobody) is But... you cann't say that "everyone is people". It is the same as: "He are students" or "They is doctor" (I mean it is incorrect).

  • Everyone(everybody, somebody, anybody, nobody) is But...
  • you cann't say that "everyone is people".
  • It is the same as: "He are students" or "They is doctor" (I mean it is incorrect).
  • It doesn't matter that "everyone in this country" = "many people".
  • "Everyone" is a grammatical singular and therefore takes singular verb forms( is ), not plurals( are )
