Most everyone
Hello there. I have a question.
Do you often use the expression "most everyone" in everyday English? I'd thought that the adjective most cannot modify the pronoun everyone before I found this phrase in a book today. I guess it might be an informal colloquial expression. What do you think?

It's probably loose English for "almost everyone." I would certainly never use it in that sense. Can you provide the sentence/context in which you encountered it please?
