What is the difference between french words "chacun" and "chaque"? Is it as I understand that "chacun" is used when we refer to human beings or to animals, and "chaque" to objects.

Salut Mike, Wystan's answer is correct ,although "he is not a native" as he likes to mention in almost all his answers. I find it neat actually .:) I am not a native as well ;) but I will elaborate on the previous. Chaque means both each or every . En francais c'est aussi "quelque" , "tout". chaque jour = every day ,each day Chacun = everyone , everybody . Chacun ses gouts! = Everyone his own tastes. En francais aussi " chaque personne " ou bien " chaque homme". It is chacun ( masculine ) and chacune ( feminine).

Maybe I am missing something here because I am not native, but the way I learnt it was: chaque = each chacun = chaque personne = each person (or animal if anthropomorphised) Hope that helps!
