Every day, not everyday.

Everyday is an adjective, it means ordinary, plain.

Keep downvoting if you want, but for non native speakers, this little nuggets of information are priceless.

Thank you.

It's just an everyday piece of knowledge. I wouldn't call it priceless.

In fact you could probably learn one of these every day with just a few minutes on Google.

Native speaker here, no. You will not be chided or anything like that if you use everyday instead of every day.

True, but for non natives like myself, who learned English thanks to Microsoft DOS and The Nanny :D, the internet is a huge learning center. So this kind of things really help.

BTW, I meant to say "FOR non native speakers", I edited it now. I realize it might be misunderstood otherwise.

Depends on where you’re from and your family. I come from a family of teachers, I was a teacher myself, and have friends who are/were teachers. Most people I know will absolutely give you shit for English mistakes.
