  <h1></h1>

  <p>In this grammar structure, we learn about a way to say "<b>all</b>" that is, well, a bit more epic. Sort of like how we might say "<b>all the king's men</b>" or "<b>all the money in the world.</b>"</p>

  <h2 id="structure">Structure</h2>

  <p>"<span class="hanzi">所有的⋯⋯ 都⋯⋯</span>" (<span class="pinyin">suǒyǒude... dōu...</span>) is a pattern used to refer to "<b>every</b>" or "<b>all</b>" of a noun, with the quantity of said noun usually being fairly large. You can sometimes not use “<span class="hanzi">的</span>” after “<span class="hanzi">所有</span>”.</p>
